In a wizarding world of small population, there's relatives, distant and
otherwise, all over the place. Although magical people marry Muggles,
a lot of them meet each other (at Hogwarts) and send their kids there
to meet the next generation, and so on. So Sirius and Lily could easily
be related. In a Muggle world where Jimmy Carter and Ronald Reagan are
sixth cousins, this isn't strange.
