IMHO, this does not seem to be related to OAuth. OAuth is three-leg authentication, and the service provider - Google in this case - will prompt the user to allow the consumer - facebook in this case - to allow an authentication attempt. Except of course the user has done the authentication in a previous attempt and facebook cached the token, but based on facebook's wording, because you are logged into your email account on this browser, does not seem to support this.
