No, it's not. Let's not dillute the term. SWATing someone is calling in a fake situation on a person that earns them a visit, specifically, from SWAT. Hostage situation, bomb threat, etc. are the usual means of doing so.
When people get SWATed, usually a fake call is made, were the police are told that a murder was already committed by the caller and that we will kill everyone on sight. Thus the police expect real danger, brings the big guns and their trigger happy attitude, kick the door in and are more likely to kill the victim.
It's not SWATing if the police come to handle a disturbance. The SWAT team need to be deployed for a SWATing.
Anyone could have called the cops too. A gathering of 100 people can make people nervous. But I wouldn't be surprised if Defcon called them too.
