OpenDNS creating a certificate to impersonate, let alone creating an entire CA would do nothing about an HSTS related error since any certificates generated would not be properly signed, so would still generate the error. In other words the error is happening because of what happens in your browser *after* OpenDNS does the lookup and returns the results in accordance with your own settings. In this particular case, since that blocked page is returning results different from the certificate that the browser expects to receive as a result of HSTS, an error/warning is displayed.

OpenDNS (like any DNS system) does not care at all about websites, webpages, content, protocol, encryption, or anything else but a domain name.
