We finally know the main cause behind this event as Konami has confirmed that they have found the user who was behind this event on PS3.

The nuke disarmament event which took place July 28 2020 (JST) was not caused because the disarmament was achieved. After an investigation, this event occurred due to improper conduct by certain user. In addition to taking countermeasures, we have banned the account that carried out these actions. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused for our players. We will announce again if additional measures are taken.

The countermeasures that Konami is mentioning here might be related to a Metal Gear Solid V and Survive stability update earlier this month that was released on all major platforms.
