Uneven pad wear

Soo I have been investigating a strange grinding noise when I turn right. At first I though it was related ot the front brakes so I did some routine inspection and service but found nothing. I then noticed this. There was like a 10 degree angle worn into the left rear pad & rotor. I was think a caliper was stuck but everything worked fine. Then I noticed the problem. My hub nut was totally loose. It had no torque on the hub. I have never even heard of this happening. Right before I looked at the rear I was driving to test the front brakes and heard the nasty noise. I simply bolted everything back together and it seems to drive fine. I still need to replace this rotor and pads.
