1080p monitor suddenly running @ 2715x1527

OK, so I posted this to reddit's r/techsupport, but I also wanted to post here to get other opinions as well.

I did nothing in the way of settings changes, yet when I woke up today my normally 1920x1080 monitor was able to run at 2715x1527, I am mainly wondering what caused this and what would be the drawbacks, so far there haven't been problems game wise, performance is the same and I haven't had lag/stuttering/screen tearing other than what I have already seen @ 1080p. The monitor isn't overheating and I haven't checked the FPS on Skyrim yet, but I played it for a bit and didn't notice anything different.

Your gpu is super sampling so you will get noticeable graphics improvement just requiring more gpu horsepower on the drawback side

Do you know how pixels work? They are Hardware in your monitor.

You are "super sampling".

The thing is, I haven't touched my settings other than the resolution, so why would it do this out of the blue. But I must say the replies were more effective than r/techsupport so thanks! And for those wondering, no I believe that I have no idea how pixels work.

Software can do weird things like changing settings becouse of Reasons while

Hardware remains constant, It only breaks.
