Often these posed chess games contain illegal positions, and sometimes (like here) extremely unlikely ones. I was wondering: how on earth did they reach this position, with the queens coming off so early without any pawn captures?

Well, it's possible: 1.d3 c5 2.a4 Qa5 3.Qd2 Qd2 4.Bd2 d6 5. h4 e5 6. Rh2. Poor play, but no blunders.
