They didn’t know apparently, the photo was taken years ago with a random seed just for the purpose of using it in the menu IIRC.

It's almost certain several people did, but either didn't get a response, or - infinitely more likely - that the seed used for the icon was simply never recorded.

Found the timeline. Yes several people asked, and no, Mojang did not have any records.
