She retained a memory of what really happened because she was gifted beyond the ordinary to hold onto the record of events and because she was the axis upon which the whole prophecy turned. In my opinion, of course.
In one of the interviews that G&K gave, IIRC, they did say that one of the reasons they had Kelly Burkhadt narrate the story of how Nick battled with the Zestorer had to do with explaining how it happened or that it even happened at all. That's why Kelly would verify that it all happened just as it was told and it wasn't a fairytale because 'his father told him so!'... they really had seemed to like that last part. Basically, there is no explanation (unless I missed an interview where they gave one) for how this ultimate battle with Zestorer happened and the 'hard reset' (their own words) where time got altered, etc. except that it did happen.

Nick wanted to restore what was lost, the staff took the initiative of doing so on a grander scale as opposed to Nick poking people one at a time.
Your theory is as good as any.
