This is the premise of the chapter “8 May 1905” of Einstein’s Dreams (“The world will end on 26 September 1907. Everyone knows it.”)
In the PDF that shows up in google results, it starts on page 65. The chapter can be read on its own without context.
I don’t think that chapter is trying to be realistic (it paints a pretty optimistic picture),
