If it were to be determined true, that McVeigh had stayed at this motel where Atta and Moussaoui showed up---if it were a COINCIDENCE, that would be perhaps the biggest coincidence of human events known in the history of mankind. The two most heinous terrorists in history just happened to pull into the same motel for lodging several years apart? The odds against that---well, is there a statistician here who would venture a number?

I'd classify it as a statistcal aberration

When the sports books in Vegas see a statistcal aberration on $$$ bet in college BB, Red Flags go up.
Another statistcal aberration would be the Judical Scoring @ the SLC Olympic for the Ice Skating events........
