Prob just wasn't tightened to the right torque when last oil change was done, also make sure the OEM crush washer is in good condition, it's a good idea to put a new crush washer on every time they're cheap and are doing a critical job. Sounds like you were lucky ? my buddy lost his oil on the motorway like that and toasted his engine.
