As Noel pointed out, this all occurs way before SPF, DKIM, and/or DMARC come into play. As for what happens if they IP blocks change between cron runs, a spammer would have to take control of an old Google or Microsoft netblock in order to increase any risk, which is unlikely. And since this is a whitelist, any new IPs that haven't been picked up in the no more than 7 days since the last query would be evaluated by Postscreen per normal... and would likely still get through.
