Sounded to me like they had a clearance. What is the source for the position and movement of the airplane icons in the animation?

But between clearing a runway, being close to another runway intersection, etc who's to say they weren't just being cautious when they say an aircraft so close to them? We're they simply taking pause to verify the taxi route, etc? And I haven't researched, but was it night time?
Can't really fault them either way.
