GPS gets its time from NIST (though during this incident they failed over to another NIST site, so it wasn't impacted).
That is not correct at all. How did you arrive at that conclusion?
GPS has its own independent timescale called GPS Time. GPS Time is generated and maintained by Atomic clocks onboard the GPS satellites (cesium and rubidium).
