Default "service insp"

I just replaced my plugs (oem ngk's) with bosch +2 platinums in hopes of curing random misfiring. i replaced 3 on the left side, started the car to see if all was going well, and i got a "service insp" light on the dash. while researching this i found that this usually comes up on its own at a certain interval. what could i have done to trigger this light? and i did finish the 3 on the right side too. drives fine.

Most definatly coincidance. All that means is that you have hit a predetermine milage/time for a service. If you just did an oil change reset the light.
