It's because the log rotation for the web server happens then. When the
rotation is complete, the script signals apache (via a HUP) to let it know
it needs to create a new log file. You can see this in the file:

 /etc/logrotate.d/apache

  HUP'ing apache also causes Tomcat to restart. I have occasionally seen
Apache/Tomcat go out to lunch after the HUP... But I can't nail down the
conditions...
