It might, but they'd have to be paying attention. If Kirk dropped Khan and his people on that planet off the books, then in the absence of a known population in the system, maybe nobody was. Terrell had no idea who Khan was, and you would think that if the hijacking of a starship had been reported, it would have been common knowledge.
Chekov was presumably onboard the Enterprise in some lower decks function at the time (otherwise, he and Khan wouldn't have recognized each other), and the name of the system didn't register when they started surveying the planet for Genesis. I wonder what his excuse was for that.
