I know that they apparently mix in solution, but there would still be some time before the dilution would be uniform.

They started adding water after about 300 gallons of methyl were already in the tanks. In the Breaking Bad podcast (which I just learned exists) a PA talks about how they spoke to a scientist of some sort about how fast the water would disperse and sink to the bottom and made sure the calculations and flow rates were pretty accurate.
