This answer almost hit spot on with my own thoughts (and hopes ), but how could they let it out from the factory if this was the case? Must have been some kind of visual inspection down the line..

Hopefully BMW gives me an answer today, emailed the pics to a service guy
yeah there is no telling. humans make errors, the inspector could have been having a bad day, or the inspector figured who cares its on the underside of the car...surely the customer won't notice. or figured it would be covered with dirt/wash off before anyone ever saw

honeslty, there are far more people who own a BMW and NEVER will see the underside of their car. and chances are if the dealer has your car up on a lift, they aren't going to tell you about the spot or man juice on your cars underside.
