I sent him mail asking about this, and he said (paraphrased):

He has a system for automatically sending usenet messages to the Arpa list
and Arpanet messages to usenet.  This weekend their usenet link was down for
a while under unusual circumstances, and when it came back up there he
couldn't tell which messages had originated on usenet and which on Arpanet,
so he resent everything.
