Apple finder mixes web results with local results.
Search for file.zip and if it doesn't find a local copy, it will look for a similar result on the web.
If you clicked enter before looking (say, you had a typo but meant another file), Safari happily opens the page. I believe that if the page serves a zip, it downloads and unzips it in the background.
This TLD sounds like a terrible idea for Mac security, at the least.
mov and app is similar, but requires more configuration - and .app by default will not run when downloaded, and .mov is harder to exploit.
