1. The domain is likely transfer locked and it's a bug in the registrar's availability detection triggered by the DNS outage
2. Even if it wasn't, Facebook could follow the UDRP process to get it back.
If you were holding it to ransom and threatening them with an outage the length of the UDRP process that might be extortion but if you just bought it out of curiousity and it went through and you handed it back it'd probably end up just like the guy who got google domains to "sell" him google.com a few years back
