The Curies discovered natural radioactivity (emission of rays or particles from the atom) while nuclear bombs are based on spontaneous fission ("splitting" the atom) which is a different process. However, developing the concept of an atomic bomb is entirely impossible without knowing radioactivity, and more importantly, the implications of that phenomenon regarding atomic nuclei and the structure of matter. Unlike, for example, any of Einstein's theories, these are crucial prerequisites for the development of nuclear weapons.
