Ot: how did they do that header in github-flavored markdown?

Github's preview mode doesn't render it correctly and I can't find anything about it in Github's docs.

Here's the source:

I'm surprised that even turns out as well as it does. Those headers are for pandoc. I guess Github must have a Yaml extension to their Markdown renderer which is picking it up.
