As far as I've been able to tell salmonella is capable of entering the inside of the egg through the shell, but whether this is the reason eggs are either washed immediately or not at all is something I've not been able to figure out. Salmonella happens to have some tricks to invade various types of tissue, but I don't know if that is related, or even unique to salmonella.
