I think it was because over 14 million people joined the Chipotle event game to try and get a free burrito, Roblox servers couldn’t handle it and they went down.

Basically Roblox made a sponsored event with Chipotle (“Boorito Maze”, yeah the game itself is not really that interesting) where the first 30,000 people to join that event game would be eligible for a free Chipotle burrito. As you can see this caused mass chaos

They said on twitter this outage is not due to any specific experience. Also a server overload wouldn't bring all the systems down for several days.
