I wasn't aware that webkit or safari had released version numbers this high. It looked at pages like a normal user would, but it took the pages so quickly it can't possibly be a human reading that fast.

My first guess it is a new version which they are testing internally. And that all they were doing is trying it on your site to see if something breaks in the display, meaning they were not reading but bug checking. Just my 2 cents since the numbers do not match the public developer bits they publish on there website.
