Probably because org tries to place the result of the src block after
the associated results line if it is a named src block.  With no name, I
imagine it looks for a results block with no name as well.  If the name
statement is not used, the results come immediately after the src block.

By default, "output" is placed in the buffer as an example.  If less
than a certain number of lines (10?), each line is prefixed with
":".  If there are more lines, they are placed in the example block, as
you have seen.  The manual doesn't seem to say this however.
