Check your book again.  They do not hear Buckbeak's
head (not neck) get chopped off; they hear the axe
swing and hit something--which turns out to be MacNair
frustratedly putting it into the wooden fence because
the hippogriff is gone.  They simply assume they heard
the execution.  Also, what they initially interpret as
a cry of despair from Hagrid turns out to be his wail
of joy (apparently with Hagrid, these sound virtually
identical).
