No foul play, also managed to get same cert you got (with public key 92 e0 55 f9 af 61 0d 7e 7e db 21 84 d5 dc 59 21...).

Perhaps Google uses multiple certs with same Common Name on different servers. If so, I wonder if there's some security benefit.

Or what could the reason for that be?

I could see rolling N copies out so if you needed to revoke one set, another set could remain functional..
