really dark oil, only 3000

I changed my oil yesterday (by myself for the first time, hoorah) and the stuff that came out was REALLY dark. Darker than I've remembered it, which is weird, because there was only 3200 miles on the oil or so, and it was full syn mobil 1 10-30. I replaced it with mobil 1 5-30.
Could it be because:
There was just more crap in the air lately?
At 78000 miles, the engine is getting older?
The techron I ran through recently left debris that worked its way into the oil?
The Fram premium model filter I used last time is a piece of crap?
Thanks,
Ethan
