Probablynot. It is an artist website with over 20 million users.
Plus, it is not a constant phenomenon. Sometimes it occurs, sometime not.
If it is steered by the website, they would do this maybe in a more efficient / constant way.
I am still on the ads or the exit node approach because this could explain the randomness. 
If it occurs the next time, I try to figure out at least the source (e.g.banner or transparent-pixel & URL) of the exploit. Maybe it is also a false positive. Have to check this. At the moment the filesare getting immediately purged (what is normally good).
