Remember, there was once a bug that doubled all melee damage that made it into a stable release. A bug that causes a rarely-used scroll to always give the same reasonable result? I could totally see that flying under the radar for weeks or even months.
So yes, I agree this one is just a coincidence, but it's not absurd on its face that it might not be.
