Spare as in a window they could fit them into. Something may have been delayed. They also need to certify other launch vehicles for the X-37.
We don't know why they moved it up. They may have decided to see how fast they could turn it around, or they may have decided to see if they could use
another vehicle for launch. For all we know they were in negotiations with SpaceX all along, and sm were told that the only way they could use a
Falcon was to go earlier than planned. There could be almost any number of reasons.
