Why does my Galaxy note 2 running Kit Kat have a Lollipop easter egg?

I've just discovered that my Galaxy Note 2 has two Easter eggs in the android settings menu. When I tap the android version in settings, it brings up the expected K, which turns into the Android name stylised like the Kit Kat brand.

When I long press the logo, I'm given two choices to select: Dessert Case (which I understand is the regular Kit Kat easter egg) or Lland (which I googled up and discovered is actually the Lollipop easter egg).
Why do I have the Lollipop easter egg on my Note 2 running Kit Kat? Has it always been there, secretly hinting at the next android version name? Was it recently added to tell us Lollipop is coming to the Note 2?
