I doubt it actually flashed correctly... From what i can tell in the mac tools, there is a kernelcache file that is uploaded to the apple tv BEFORE you restore with itunes.. Basically that is the jailbreak and the restore ipsw is just an exploit to trick the appletv into running the kernelcache...
We have done similar stuff by injecting scripts into android before certain parts of the bootloader complete and the kernel loads inorder to exploit a root exploit.
