They're only removed if someone deletes a version explicitly (which
should be disabled atm) or there's some dreadful bug (which is
possible).
I checked the logs. There's no mystery here, the person who uploaded
the new photos simply deleted the old revisions with the handing "del"
button. It seems this was not disabled, only complete deletion of
images.
Until this portion of the code is rewritten (which it desperately
needs), I've set it to only allow sysops to delete image revisions.
