Hm, I've never heard of this happening before, so I don't know for sure, but it's a very good sign that you got an email from NVC. Does everything on the email match up to your case (to make sure you didn't receive someone else's case info in error)?

I would definitely try to get confirmation from USCIS though, because you want to be sure that they actually forwarded your petition on to NVC. Call them and try to speak to a tier two person, not just the representative who answers the phone – the first person you talk to only sees what's on the computer screen and often can tell you no more than what the case update page tells you (which is pretty screwy and not always up to date). Explain your situation and say that you really need to know for sure what the status of your petition is and whether or not it was forwarded to NVC.

Hopefully you really have been approved and can start the NVC processing – this part flies by! Good luck!
