I take it this prompted the change to port 70. Why 70? What other protocol was using port 150 at the time?

SQL apparently.

https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1060 first mention of port 150 being used

Was there, at one point, an "SQL protocol"? Because there isn't any standardized SQL wire-protocol today.
