One possible way that I think can make the sentence sound kosher is to think that it was going on like that for several days.
I reread the whole paragraph again. This time I think it's the case (that it was going on like that for several days).

> Dale Carnegie told a story about the steel magnate Charles M. Schwab. One evening, to incentivize the workers in a mill, Schwab wrote on the floor the amount of steel the day shift had produced. Seeing the number, the night shift worked hard to top it, marking its own figure down. Soon the two shifts were vying for bragging rights, and production soared. “The way to get things done,” Schwab said, “is to stimulate competition.”
Schwab wrote down the number on the floor. The night shift saw it. The night shift worked hard to top it. The night shift marked its number down. The day shift worked, and Schwab wrote the day shift's number down again. The night shift saw it, worked hard, and marked its number down. This repeated over and over until the production soared.
