I guess the image verification that you switched off was too weak.

The only thing that bothers me is:
why did they come past "Image Verification" (which is rather a captcha) plus "Spam Check Level 2"?
Btw. I'd rename "Spam Check Level 2" to a rather not so
searchable item like "Are you made of flesh and blood"
or similar.

Also it would be interesting what anti spam measurements were working on site on the day the spam robots registered - I guess you can figure that out from your log files. After that you'll know which measurements were too weak.
