I have some issues with the Marauder's Map too. The answer to your 
question may create more questions. Lupin could not have seen the 
second set of Harry and Hermione because they were not there yet. The 
first time line did not contain two of each. The Lupin in the second 
time line may have chosen not to notice. He would have trusted they 
were there for a reason. 

Now what about the three Hermiones going to three classes at once. 
That would have been more noticeable. Especially because they kept 
wondering where she went and then she would pop up from a different 
hallway. If she was gaining an extra 5-6 hours a day [1 hour example 
per class] wouldn't her hair and nails grow faster? That had to be 
noticeable too.
