Why not.
Could a page called "new_page_2.htm" not be about selling golf balls?
Could a page called "/showthread-220756" not be about the basics of clay modelling?
In the real world, does it say in a book turn to page "read-more-about-motorcycles.htm" to see more? Nope? odd that isn't? You think they would do that so we can tell what the page is going to be about!
Search engines have long, long, long since gone past the simplistic view of page names being highly related to the content, if they ever were!
When the Internet first started being commercial, nobody concentrated on page names being vitally important to what the page was about and pages where called by all manner of strange identifiers that meant something to the originator. Search engines managed pretty well then and they have advanced enormously since. When people realise that we are not still in 1998 they might actually start to learn something and talk sense for a change.
AND! You would think that with all the discussions there have been on GoogleBombing, where the ACTUAL content of the page and the title, never mind the URL, are completely ignored and the page appears for a totally unrelated phrase would give these "experts" a bit of a clue.
Page titles, body content and anchor text are the three things that SEs mainly use to set the context for the page.

It's a html file, and the coding is in naming the file. I think it's related.
