I think he might have known. Not to say he knew, and not to say he didnt know.
He knows that the ship will do things, alter its course, activate systems, deactivate systems, etc to provide survivability to the people on board, is the same thing the Atlantis computer system did.
But, He also knows the ships systems must be very resourceful because its so old, old enough that it was before the Ancients used ZPE for a source. You have to question how a ship thats almost a million years old would still have power, especially after traveling several billion light years. I mean, Atlantis used 3 ZPMS to power itself for a mere few thousand years after the Ancients left with almost nothing but the shield running. and when people arrived the ZPMs only lasted a few hours. but the Destiny, is Hundreds of thousands of years old, and has survived for weeks after they have arrived.
So, I think he may have had a second though in his head. He took the most apparent option, which was that the destiny dropped out in a system that had a high possibility to support life. It seamed to be an even farther option to say, the ship is doing this for itself, not us.
he had two opposing theories going on in his head. 1 made more sense than the other, the latter though seamed even more far fetched than was really reasonable.
It was merely AFTER the ship started to refuel that he probably thought, "Well, S.o.b. this ship is awesome"
Based on that, I feel that his actions were based on the fact that the ship was going to burn up. as it seamed most reasonable. that 2nd theory probably gave him the subconscious idea to stay behind.
