I guess that it is beacuse of the fact that Junior7 is a knowledge based program
and it knows that 2 knights cannot win.

Most of the other programs do not know it so they have no problem to see the
mate.

I believe that Deep Junior without knowledge about insufficient material have no
problem to solve it.

You can turn off the insufficient material parameter in junior7.
I can add that Movei has no problem to find the moves

The correct original diagram is the following when the black king is at h1

[D]8/K6N/8/2N5/1n6/6Q1/6pn/7k w - - 0 1
