Sirius didn't transfer the secret to Peter, he persuaded James to 
make Peter his Secret Keeper.  Presumably, James called Sirius to 
Godric's Hollow when he realised they were under attack.  Did Sirius 
not say in book five that they communicated via a mirror when in 
detention.  We know Sirius still had his mirror, because he gave it 
to Harry, therefore it is possible that James had his and was able to 
shout for help. He would certainly call for his closest friend, which 
Sirius was. So close in fact, that we learn in book 5, that Sirius 
went to live with James' parents when he left home.
