They knew that he was picking off the members of the Order one by one,
but they had defied him three times and were not afraid of him for
their own sakes. I think that hearing the Prophecy from Dumbledore and
realizing that Voldemort's focus had shifted from them to their
defenceless baby drove them into hiding. Only my opinion, of course!
