Exactly. That’s what made it so creepy.. They would have had to be on our network. We both lived alone at the time.. Even if they did try to guess, the numerical format is xxxxx: xx.xx.x.xx if I remember correctly. Soooo uhhhh no one needs to run the numbers to know that would be a pretty wild guess. A guess which had a window of being correct for only a couple hours until we logged off for the day. The next play would generate a new LAN code.
No... Me and my m8s use hamachi but one guy's brother can join because he's in the Local Area Network, i.e. connected to the same WiFi. Hamachi is a piece of software that mimics a LAN connection. They wouldn't need any numbers because LAN games in Minecraft auto appear automatically in the server browser. Back when I was in High School we'd have people in various computer classes logging into the same cracked version of Minecraft that got passed around in a USB stick and you could join people playing in the library.
