Probability theory tells us that in a meaningfully large sample size, we should expect a few people to get it completely right purely by chance.
The problem is that the hi-res believers will grasp the fact that someone got it right as evidence to support their claims. But it does nothing of the sort. The people who got it right must now repeat the test, and get it right again before we can conclude that they do genuinely hear a difference. Otherwise they were just an (expected) outlier in the stats.
