Clearly they are Jewish and their ancestors were part of The Madagascar Plan, where Nazi Germany was forced resettling Jewish people in Madagascar.

They have largely been isolated and weren't able to keep apprised of what happened after their family was resettled. Germany had been really pushing to establish a military base in Antarctica for decades, so the penguins had the understanding that Germany must be well established there by the time they got there.

So that is why Penguins from Madagascar would believe that people in Antarctica would be speaking German.

Weren't the penguins from a zoo in the US though? It's been a while since I saw the film.

Idk, I was too old and not on the right kind of drugs to watch it when it came out.

If that is true, my explanation still holds up with the change that their parents moved to America from Madagascar.
