Luck. Its hash was 14 times lower than it needed to be: luckier than 93% of blocks.

The chain

It carries the hash of block 500,396, 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 500,398 carries this one's hash in turn.

Transactions

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