The Fortran code at particle research groups I saw looked pretty solid to me.

  "Fortran" and "solid" are not two words that go together in my mind ;-) But the OP didn't ask if the code was good (or "solid"), they asked if it would make any sense to a non-physicist programmer. And the answer to that question, I'm guessing, is most likely not. But I would be very happy if I turned out to be wrong about that.

    It probably boils down to if there are any non physicist Fortran programmers...

    You can write bad code in any language. The verbosity and restrictions of (modern) Fortran standards leave significantly less room for developer mistakes, much better than C/C++.
