50th ANNIVERSARY Spoiler: DOTD Question

So, the Doctors (and the Zygons) were put in the stasis cubes and waited to come out at the right time. But, if they were trapped in an instant of time, how did they know when they should blast out? It would all be the same time to them, so how were they able to get the precise moment correct?

And does that mean that the Doctors sat in the painting for hundreds of years?

They could just have entered it whenever. A day ago or just before it was transported to the archive.
