The answers to those questions will be helpful.
Well, the how is easy enough. I just tried it in Premiere, to make sure I wasn't crazy. Exported a ProRes master at 60 from an h.264 shot at 24. Looked fine, really.
Why someone would WANT to do that, I have no idea, unless maybe this whole thing is meant to be dropped into another, longer timeline that is already 60fps.

As others have mentioned, unless the timing of the footage has changed, your cues should still be fine, even if you can't lock to picture, but I would definitely hit them up and mention the 60fps thing. Perhaps someone goofed.
