They get it from the xTLD registrars based on the data taken from the domain registration. TLD resource records for anydomain look like: ;delegation data einekleinedomain.de. NS ns1.harald.de. einekleinedomain.de. NS ns2.harald.de. ; ;glue records aka "additional section" in DNS UDP packet ns1.harald.de. A ip.ad.re.ss ns2.harald.de.
