Because you issued halt?

Maybe this will help:
<http://www.debianadmin.com/debian-and-ubuntu-linux-run-levels.html>
* 0 System Halt
* 1 Single user
* 2 Full multi-user mode (Default)
* 3-5 Same as 2
* 6 System Reboot

You can also see which commands are available from /etc/rc<0-6>.d

The 'K' files are not excecutable unless they are changed to 'S'.
