Like most DNS servers, most DHCP servers are operated by network  
administrators.   So the network administrator goes in and updates one  
or the other, and the next time a request comes in, the DHCP server  
gets the new IP address and returns it, whether it gets it from the  
DNS or from its own configuration.
