The Cabrillo program was named after Cabrillo College, a small community
college in Aptos, CA (Near Santa Cruz). Trey (N5KO) lives very near there.

The Cabrillo is the name of the explorer what discover California, based on
that the State use it a lot
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Juan_Rodr%C3%ADguez_Cabrillo
why Trey choose that name for the contest format? , we need to ask him why
Maybe there is no magic on the name, just a name.

Trivia Time!
I did some browsing but I couldn't find why the Cabrillo format was dubbed
