I can't help but think it's an attempt to manipulate an algo. Nothing more. How does a database like Google classify the hash symbol? If you aggregate enough of them does it mean anything? Someone must be hoping so. I don't think the database places any particular value on things people think they do. If anything, they're trying to place less value on anything subject to manipulation. Even their recent devaluation of "boilerplate anchor text" is in line with that reasoning.
