Speculating here. Probably they use some sort of vlan bridging to get your traffic to and from their network. For that they are using some internal network addressing (which could be anything, even public as you see), which has no relevance to the public IP address they present to the internet on your behalf. If you can get tagged and untagged ICMP packets into that link you may learn something from what comes back, but results may vary.
