I think in my case it was related to something saved by
desktop-save-mode. It disappeared when I closed this org file buffer
before restarting Emacs, but unfortunately I did not save the old
desktop file. I think some fill paragraph pattern (ie
comment-start-skip) for another mode than org-mode was stored in the
desktop file for that file.

I can only guess how that happened.
