They still fit him from last year and they were and still are is favourites (nothing special, from M+S but they don't have them this year).

The label says maxmum temp 40 degrees but I didn't realise they were in the machine (accidently left in after last wash) and I've just done a load of towels on 60.

I can't tell if they've shrunk or not (they're not doll size that's for sure!)

What's the chance that I might get away with this?

tell him he's grown?

TBH i think it'll depend on the fabric. the muslins i just bought say 40 degree wash but i'm sure you could boil them and they'd be fine. polyester/ man made fabrics might not be so tough.
