Typically, previous experience indicates a spider crawling around in the alarm, and the sensor picks it up. I belive if the batteries are low, one should get some sort of mild clicking sound. It's a mystery to me. No repeats since.

I didn't know they were somehow connected. Is that really what is done now days? The house if 8 years old.

Impressive coincidence, maybe helped by a general temperature shift.
My house built 6 years ago, they were all connected together. One goes off, they all went off.
If your alarms are battery powered and still have a wire going up in the ceiling, then they're interconnected.
