You may have experienced an nntp server glitch.  `M-g' (aka. "GROUP")
reported the updated article numbers but `RET' (aka. "XOVER") perhaps
wasn't updated or something, so it claimed that the article didn't
exist, so Gnus trusted that information and marked the article as
read.

I'm just guessing here, but it's a possibility.  Could you try to do
the same again -- post an article and then quickly `M-g' and `RET' the
group to see whether the same thing happens again?
