It shouldn't matter... What probably happened is that the download first timed out when the 1st URL was tried, and EasyBuild then tried again with the 2nd URL where it hit an HTML page rather than an actual tarball.
When you tried again after commenting out the 2nd URL (& removing the downloaded HTML page), downloading with the 1st URL probably worked by chance...
