Here's my theory:

Petunia Dursley discovers/reveals that she has magical powers as well in # 6 when she and the rest of the family are attacked by the Death Eaters. Voldemort knowing that he cannot attack at 4 Privet Drive will send his Death Eaters to kill the family, and therefore the safe haven for Harry Potter, But Petunia will save Harry and the rest of the family but reveal that she is not "normal".

In an online chat, JKR stated that in book 6, Harry will have his shortest stay at #4 Privet Drive. Perhaps, never to return? I know Uncle Vernon would not be too happy about Death Eaters coming to his door. But then again, Uncle Vernon is JKR's least favorite character, so maybe she'll kill him off and it won't matter if he is happy or not.

Of course, it could also be Dudley who gets some posers, but I don't think so. Petunia's character has been very well developed compared to Dudley.
