Actually, this is not "the" DES hash for password "frank", it is one out
of 4096 possible DES hashes for password "frank".
For saltless hash formats, there exists just one hash pr password.
For salted hash formats, there can be an arbitrary number of different
hashes for the same password, depending on the salt size.

I think he was wondering why john wouldn't report an MD5 hash as cracked
if there isn't already a line with this MD5 hash in john.pot, but other
lines in john.pot (for the same hash format, but different hashes, or
even for different hash formats) exist for the password "frank".
