I doubt that it was some one looking at old files. I would tend to guess that some team member some where was trying to "hack" the site, possibly adding graffiti or changing text.

The assumption that "hackers" would be looking for something likely has no truth to it. There is a good chance it was some kid running trying to get edit a fairly public page.
