But they won't be able to figure it out unless they have reasons to suspect
that IP address is the one that was autoblocked in the first place. That is,
you need to know what IP address to check first, and even then you can't
actually be certain that it is the one under a particular autoblock unless you
can observe the contribs page of that particular IP address both immediately
before and immediately after the autoblock triggered. It's not really a problem
if the software reveals little more than what you already know or have a good
reason to suspect.
The scenario described - an admin somehow going over the contribution pages of
all 4 billion IPv4 addresses (not to mention the 2^128 IPv6 ones) to find the
one that is under an autoblock - which also must be the only autoblock active
at the time - is, to put it mildly, extremely unlikely.
