Actually, as far as I know it, it's double opportunism.
1. GOG check games (mostly abandonware, I suspect), and tries to start it in DOSBox for DOS, or get fixing patches for Windows.
2. In case of success they contact rights owners and asks for right to distribute it. Not for free, I suppose.
3. Usually, if such game sells on GOG well, the same right owners double the same game on Steam.
But it's all off-topic in this theme, I fear...
