I knew about it, but only really because of the plaque. I used to pass through Bethnal Green station every day on the way to work.
There was a theory a while ago that it wasn't a German bomb that hit it at all, but a new anti-aircraft weapon stationed in the nearby park that went wrong. I don't know if that was ever more than speculation, though.
