The firefox malware seems logical, probably the easiest way to bust the site 
users... 
but only after the FBI took the server over.

It was a tor hidden service, and i don't remember any details being given about 
how they physically located the server in the first place? 

In the case of the silk road it was supposedly busted code, a captcha that 
leaked the real servers IP, but i don't recall what (if any) explanation was 
given for playpen..
