I obviously get how people can use the keyboard side, but I have no idea how accordionists know which buttons to push on the other side.

I'm guessing they work so hard on it that they barely sleep at night.
A few years back I bid on a used accordion at a silent auction. I was the only bidder, so I won.
I've taught myself a couple Christmas songs, but using almost exclusively the piano keys - I can manage maybe 2 of the other buttons, at most, and I only have like a dozen of them on my basic model.
So basically, yes, even as someone who has played the accordion, I'm with you on not understanding that ability.
