Can anyone shed any light on why this call might have been made by the BB with Qc6d?

BB (8k) + 30300 + 27200 = 65900 /22300 = 2.9:1

Is this just one of those calls you make deep in a tourney to try and knock a few people out, or is there something I'm missing?

Andrew Demetriou moved all-in from under-the-gun for 30,300 and found an immediate customer when Kim Vaksman moved all-in for a total of 27,200. With the action folding to Marlon Goonawardana in the big blind he went into the tank for several minutes, asking for a count and pondering a decision. Eventually Goonawardana made the call and the cards were tabled:

Demetriou: {A-Clubs}{4-Hearts}
Vaksman: {10-Spades}{10-Clubs}
Goonawardana: {Q-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}

The board fell {2-Spades}{9-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{8-Spades}{2-Hearts} and Vaksman's pair of tens hold to triple him up to nearly 90,000. Demetriou is now in trouble and is left with only 6,200 chips
