I guess someone took one of those territories back before your next turn
To win a game by a victory objective you must hold the objective for one full round:
ie. You win if you still hold the objective at the beginning of your next turn.
From the instructions
Victory Conditions / Map Objectives
Some maps have 'victory' objectives, which you must conquer and hold for one round to win the game. If you are holding an objective, you will win the game at the moment you press the "Begin Turn" button, even in assassin and terminator games (think of this as the ultimate zone bonus). In team games, as with bonuses, the objective must be held by a single player.
So to answer your question you can either take the objective and hold it for one round unbroken or wipe your oppenent(s) off the map.
Does that help?
