I've had this happen twice in a row now. I take a province and I get whatever he was building there.
Could be bug, could be WAD, depending on how you read the turn resolution sequence, since buildings happen only after movement and battles. Generally the money is lost and nothing is built if the commander building things is killed, but I do not know what happens if the commander with build orders routs and escapes. It could be that since he didn't die, the game determines that "X had orders to build <building> in province Z, X is alive, therefore complete building", when it should do

- X has build orders in Z for this turn
- Check if X is alive
- If yes, check if X is in Z after battles
- If yes, execute build

But that's just an educated guess on the basis of how mercenary hiring happens (if you hire them in a province you lose that turn, they will serve your enemy).
