It was likely an old PM that you did not read. No new PMs were sent as a result of this upgrade. If you did receive a "new" PM then it wasn't related.
Note that the software has an option to Pop-Up a notification that you have a new PM. In the past, this feature was globally disabled because it had performance concerns on the server. Right now, after the software upgrade, the feature is currently enabled. It can be disabled, per account, through the UserCP. You would have seen the Pop-Up (unless your browser disallows) message today if you had any PMs that was unread.

I had no old unread PM and the person who I saw sent it had not sent me anything.
Without further information, it's hard to give a specific explanation. But what I'm saying is this upgrade did not result in any new PMs being sent. The notification system, on the other hand, did change and would have prompted for any unread PMs. So something happened in the past to cause the notification to prompt you when they got enabled as part of the software upgrade. As I said, the notifications are core to the software but were disabled due to performance concerns. After the recent upgrade, it's currently globally enabled.
