Sounds like the DMCA request was an accident. Maybe it's a form with a field "Company who requested file be removed: ".

But it's amusing nonetheless. Are there other incidents of a company serving itself DMCA requests?

Accidents happen, but you sure do not want your startup to have an accident involving a DMCA takedown notice sent in error. There are penalties for doing such. It is generally best to vet this stuff with a lawyer.
