That had crossed my mind,
Blaster, but I doubt it. . simply because Kubrick was such a perfectionist.
I think he would have forseen the issue & set the clock to the appropriate time that would correspond to the script/storyline.
Let's take a closer look at the clock.

hmm. . .If I squint really hard I might be seeing a faint, faint, faint shadow of the hands of the clock.

That's true,
CBD, but I believe someone mentioned that there was a connecting doorway.
And the reason for the door?
So that travelers imbibing at the Grapevine's bar felt like they still had one foot in the bus station.
Kind of like a bar at an airport.

Here's a closer look at the door in question. . .and something I hadn't noticed before!
There is a man peeking from the doorway waiting for Kubrick to finish filming the scene.
