I'm a bit confused about the extension of cubes that are not visible. From the question I would expect the cube shown to extend all the way to the far right corner but in the 3d image it does not, am I missing something?

Thank you.
I think the correct way to think about it is, if you cant see it, theres nothing there, UNLESS its a piece below an elevated cube, then there is "invisible" cube there.
 
You should try to rotate the 3D view to match the orientation of the question a little more closely, but as raysoflight pointed out - you don't assume cubes exist that aren't visible. You can see a piece of the cube your arrow is pointing to so you know that one exists, but there's no reason to assume there are any other cubes extending behind it.
