My guess would be that maybe it wasn't locked in the first place or they happened to randomly try a few pin combinations & got lucky..
I think those are most likely scenarios.
Now if you're some very important person who could be target then I wouldn't assume what I stated previously & instead assume the worst.
My mom says I'm very important ... so I'll assume this was a state actor
But yeah, this is most likely. I changed my settings to lock faster with a longer pin
