Could it be the case that these were already in your Firefox local
cache?

Quite natural as https is encrypted and all the proxy sees in plain text
is a request to connect to the hostname of the https url.

You can use the sslbump feature of Squid-3.1 to break SSL encryption if
your users agree to this. But not without seriously crippling https at
the same time. But if your alternative to comply with regulations and
policy is to otherwise completely block https access then this may be an
option..
