My guess would be they have not updated yet. You can find out what
version of the zone they see by using dig @ each of the nameservers
individually. No, Primary, Secondary, etc. do not rollover that way.
They are (not technically but for all practical purposes) random.

You'll need to first clear out the cache before restarting to force the
update.
