Because they evolved into screen lockers.
Back when I was at IBM, we were required to have our desktops lock up automatically. There were security people wandering around to ensure this was done. For my computer, I made a bitmap of my desktop and had it display when the "screen saver" kicked in. So, to anyone passing by, it looked as though my computer wasn't locked and they'd have to check. ;-)
