The Nazi movement was just gathering steam then and I don't believe the term "Blitzkrieg" had even been coined by that point. The rocket program was also just getting going then. It would make more sense for them to leave in 1944 or 1945, when the movement was fully developed (if falling apart!) and the rocket program had reached its greatest development.

People easily talk about movies, even not-yet-released ones. (quite logical, it's a powerful form of art that can easily and quickly be 'consumed') And if you can tell you participated in some way to realize the project it gets a personal touch you can proudly talk about to your friends and family. A very important thing to me (and most likely others too) -besides the premise of the film itself- is the PEOPLE behind the project! If some jerk (ab)uses social media tools to realize his/her project you get a plain NO from me, at least in terms of money. If I decide to put money in a movie that looks interesting to me, (without knowing excact details in terms of story and style, although Iron Sky is quite pleasing as to releasing stuff as we slowly get to the finished product) you must at least convince me by really being interested in the people having faith in something risky + being accessible and open in terms of communication with these people. And Iron Sky seems to be on the right track! And also word of mouth is really important! People easily talk about movies, even not-yet-released ones.
