We say it's or what a small world when we we encounter a person in an unexpected place or when we discover that we know a person someone else knows.
For example:
Jake: Jill, this is my cousin Marta.
Jill: Oh, Marta and I know each other. We used to be lab partners in high school.
Marta: Hi Jill. What a small world!
