I remember well the findings of Mark Cassino on film reflectivity. The CCD microlenses will of course not act as a mirror, but the flat piece of SMC glass protecting the CCD from dust may. I don't know if the orientation is a tell-tale sign of sensor reflectivity, but I don't think we can rule it out.
