Missing Lugnuts?

I was washing my car today and noticed one of the five lugnuts on my front driver's side wheel was missing. I checked the other three wheels and the driver's side rear wheel was missing one too. This is the second time washing my car (bought it CPO about a month ago) and I didn't notice any lugnuts missing then although I don't specifically remember cleaning that area either - I may have just not noticed it then.

I drove down to the nearest BMW service center (different dealership than the one I bought the car) and they put new ones in no charge -. gotta give them kudos as they could have easily charged me. I don't know if they were missing from the time I bought the car (meaning the dealership missed it, lost them, or ??) or they were stolen. Any ideas or thoughts how they became missing? Are BMW lugnuts something people steal?
