I would really be looking either at a kernel/fs fault, or malicious
administrative access.   Samba doesn't rename files on it's own - there
just isn't the code do do it.  And furthermore, Samba always conducts
operations as the connecting user (you didn't have 'admin users =' set
did you?) unless configured specificly otherwise.

I would carefully examine your system logs, and login records to
determine what programs were actually running at the time, if there were
actually connections to the Samba share etc.

If it was not for the fact that only root could write to those dirs, I
would have suspected one of the various windows worms (some of them have
been known to crawl networks damaging data) - but in your case I'm a bit
stumped.  I would not rule out system compromise, but kernel errors
seems to more likely problem to me.

I hope this gives you some ideas where to start looking.
