No, they use a GPS with 7ms time spread for servers as you said. What Im describing is a custom device set against an atomic clock to nano or microsecond accuracy which then does the same to the servers via low latency interconnects. Optionally with time server & dedicated networks for reduced admin overhead.

Should do a lot better than 7ms with performance implications.
