I spent years working on algorithms for processing 3D scanner data, and the claim that you could get a scan of that resolution and quality - surreptitiously, through a glass enclosure, and with a Kinect - is absurd. Most likely it's a scan of a replica created under carefully controlled conditions, or they were able to acquire a scan created by the museum.
