Yeah, they did purposely underestimate the lifespan by a few months, but I don't think any of them dreamed that they both could be still going this long. They must have some amazing batteries for them to last that many charge/discharge cycles. It is also pretty lucky that those dust storms clean the solar panels every so often.
