Its not odd, maybe half them people are not crisis actors but regular people wondering what's going on. They did not hear gunshots or see people getting shot and they don't think that they are in danger themselves.
Just before the train gets to the station people start a commotion and let off a smoke bomb and their wondering wtf is going on.
If I get a small group of my friends and we let of firecrackers and run around the corner of a street with enough commotion I can convince the people there and people watchi g TV it was an active shooter case.
People will say on the news whatever my friends told them, or make stuff up to be the hero or for their self attention even time off work/ sick pay for PTSD.
Then you can convince an even larger pool of people who watch the news that it happened, imagine if the news were in on it as well.
