That part is not as weird as it seems. It's not unheard of for VCs who are looking to maintain a relationship with a startup to provide an introduction even before investing as a gesture of good faith. Also, to clarify, the call was just a regular VC chat, the customer intro came later.
Granted that's usually the case when there's a competitive fundraising round that's coming up but it still not completely crazy.
