The capitol building itself doesn't have that many offices when you get right down to it. Just wandering around and stumbling across Pelosi's office is quite plausible.

I mean, I've not been there, but according to Congresspeople affected, they feel that it would be impossible for someone unfamiliar with the building to stumble upon their offices. Especially since even members who've worked at the capitol building often still get lost in the complex.

Let's call it a couple hundred offices in the building itself. There are hundreds of people roaming freely, checking what's behind every door. It would be strange if they didn't come across particular offices.
