They announced the first classful block from all CIDRs in the table.

For example, if I had 172.16.0.0/14, 172.16.0.0/16 would have been
announced.  I venture to take a guess that it's something nasty with
redistribution of BGP into a classful IGP and back into BGP again, but
since it's not my network, I can't tell you what happened.
