It looks like the PHP code is the front facing web code which then makes curl calls into the server.js code as you suspected. Presumably server.js is run using node which listens on port 8090 and exposes a few ipfs methods which just calls into the local ipfs binary on the system using exec calls.

IPFS is an interesting project and this is a pretty cool usage of it.
