I wonder how long it would have taken to be noticed if he replicated DNS and sat on it for a while. Better yet, how long if he had redirected or cloned the site.

Google gets enough DNS traffic that I doubt you could just sit on it for very long. Not without an expensive bill.

Not sure why you're getting downvoted. Setting the NS records to their original values would make the whole thing transparent unless you dug into the domain ownership.

Wouldn't most of it get cached downstream tho?
