All Saint's Day is November 1. Many pilgrims were in Wittenberg for that festival. The church door was the community bulletin board, and a good place to post notices for future debate. From my reading, the year before he had preached a critical sermon on All Saint's Day, and I suppose people were interested in what might be forthcoming. So I would say he took advantage of the holiday.
