I found the following in this article on National Geographic's website, dated December 2001.

Quote:
[Jose Velasquez's] gas station, open only to Department of Defense personnel, is the last structure between the Pentagon and the hillside that, hours later, would become a wailing knoll. [...]

Velasquez says the gas station's security cameras are close enough to the Pentagon to have recorded the moment of impact. "I've never seen what the pictures looked like," he said. "The FBI was here within minutes and took the film."
Not at all surprising to me, though. As has been said numerous times, it's potential evidence. Seeing as how this particular gas station only services DoD personnel, I don't think it'd be too much of a stretch to say that the relevent government agencies would know exactly what its security camera could see.
