Goku thought he had sensed some familiar ki earlier, but that practically disappeared when Cell had passed out, so he brushed it off as nothing.
It's not until Cell recovers that he senses it again - given that Cell's energy is a mishmash of various friends and foes of his, as well as Goku's own energy, he thinks it's Vegeta's energy at first. Acting too quickly for his own good, he taps a finger to his forehead, teleporting to the source.

Goku's baffled and concerned, to be sure, but he's more excited than one would expect, given all that Cell did and tried to do. Sure, he couldn't beat Cell when they last met, but he has gotten a lot stronger since then...
