Shostakovich "theme"

The article states that the "Song of the Counterplan" was a composition by Shostakovich. However, it then also states that the "theme" was used by Stravinsky in "Petrushka" and by Taneyev in his 1st Symphony. Since "Counterplan" dates from 1933, it is difficult to see how Stravinsky could have used it in "Petrushka" in 1911, nor Taneyev in 1874. Perhaps it should have been stated specifically where the "theme" occurs in each of the two earlier works, unless it was just a case of a sequence of notes bearing a purely coincidental resemblance to Shostakovich's "Counterplan" tune.
