  IMO, the broom came from the "same place" that school equipment always comes from. The budget. Every school I have ever attended, from kindergarten through grad school, has periodically replaced worn out equipment with newer stuff. It seems obvious that Prof. McGonagall, recognizing Harry's talent at flying and wanting to maximize her houses' chance at the Quidditch Cup, uses a portion of her houses' allotment of the budget to aquire a Nimbus 2000.
