I had this issue with internal domains indexed by Google. The domains where not published anywhere by my company. They were dcanned by leakix.net which apparently scans the whole web for vulnerabilities and publishes web pages containing the domain names associated with each IP address. I guess they read them from the certificates

There is another source, SNI certs showing up on a server or load balancer during the TLS handshake. When the client tries to connect to a server using SNI without indicating the server, some will reply with a default or give a list of valid server names.
