Luck. Its hash only just made it under the target: luckier than 7% of blocks.

The chain

It carries the hash of block 498,577, the block before it. Change anything in that block and its hash changes, so this one no longer fits: that is what makes the blocks a chain. Block 498,579 carries this one's hash in turn.

Transactions

In block order, the miner's reward first. 25 to a page.
