Well, I don't know if this has already been said, but there is a kind 
of parallel with the second generation (that is the group of Harry, 
Ron, hermione and Neville). If you think about it, the Sorting Hat 
considered to put Harry in Slytherin and Hermione in Ravenclaw. We 
don't know about Neville but it is said that the hat took a long time 
to decide where to put him (maybe it was considering putting him in 
Huppelpuff). Ron was clearly a Gryffindor. But in the end, the Hat 
put them all in Gryffindor. Maybe something similar happened with the 
marauders (they could all have been sorted in different houses but 
the hat thought it was better to "unite" them in the same house...)

Dan:
I really like this idea--Neville, Ron, Hermione and Harry representing the 4 Houses united in one. Perhaps the same thing *did* happen to the Marauders. Time (Rowling) will tell.
