Narrative:

ATC cleared our flight to taxi from gate in okc to runway 17R for departure. Approaching the departure end of runway 17R, ATC advised us of seneca traffic north of the airport and that it was no factor. As we took the runway, I noticed an aircraft that appeared to be lined up on runway 17R and appeared to be on about a 4 mi final for our runway. As we began our takeoff roll, the tower instructed the aircraft to go around. We called tower after takeoff about the aircraft. The tower thought we were on the other side of the airport. Supplemental information from acn 602329: captain called the tower and told them we were ready for departure. The tower controller informed us that we were cleared for takeoff on runway 17R. As we started to enter the runway, both captain and myself noticed a high wing twin engine on about a 4-5 mi final for our runway. We were puzzled, but I continued our takeoff. We heard the controller tell this aircraft to go around. Captain asked the tower controller before switching to departure control if the aircraft that went around was practicing approachs. The controller said no and that he thought we were departing on runway 17L. He informed us that he had made a mistake.
