Are they cron jobs for your specific user or are they system-wide ones?

Also, user crontabs depend on the individual machine.  If your host has
multiple machines, say one for SVN but another for the Apache/MySQL then that
could be an explanation.

When you are logged in to that server can you see your PHP scripts and other
web files?

You may need to check with your sysadmin to find out how they have this set up.
