Most likely because he knew that the Phoenix belonged to Dumbledore,
he knew who bought the first wand, he knew that wand was used by him
against Harry and he was an expert on wands and therefore knew the
likely consequences of the brother wands' interaction. In fact, I bet
he was the one who told DD what happens when two brother wands fight
each other - after all he is the ultimate authority on the subject.

All DD knows is that Harry is destined to fight LV. Once he heard
about the wand, he could put two and two together but I doubt it was
preordained.
