The fact that nmap reported this port as filtered is also significant.

'Filtered means that a firewall, filter, or other network obstacle is
covering the port and preventing nmap from determining whether the port
is open.'
This may then be a false positive. Check the output of netstat -a --inet
(from a trusted binary if you are really worried) to see what processes
have sockets open and listening to network ports.
More than likely nmap received a specific kind of non-response when it hit
this port that allowed it to identify a packet filter in place.
