Because she was the only one who could be persuaded (or bought) into taking it.
In the wake of the 1992 "Year of the Woman" election, the Dems felt that they HAD to put a woman on the committee that had handled the Clarence Thomas/Anita Hill mess (which they had leveraged in the 92 election). Problem was, of the Democratic women elected to the Senate that year (DiFi, Boxer, Murray, Mosley-Braun) not a single one actually wanted to sit on Judiciary (since it doesn't give a lot of opportunities to bring pork home to the state).
DiFi apparently cut a sweet deal to agree to go on the committee.
