Its called "Mutual aid", in this case the most likely reason was some sort of accident or obstruction (Moose/deer in road) several miles ahead in another town which could have been cleared by the time you passed through the affected area. Sometimes its better to slow down traffic than to stop it all entirely which can cause chain reaction collisions because peeps is too stoopid to watch the road and take the damm cruise control off in traffic.
