WTF happened here?

I am at "negative" time. The game did not stop at 00:00 but continued and are now red, which I suppose is overtime. How is this possible?

The scenario designer allowed for it. Scenario's can be designed with a hard stop or with multiple variable length overtime values.
(It's not as if real life soldiers know when the battle ends either . . . )

That is of course correct.

I think, but am not certain, that if a VP location is currently contested, ie you have troops in it as well as the enemy, this may also cause overtime for a few minutes or until one side or the other takes control of it.
This may be set in the map design though, not sure.
