There's a couple benefits, insulating a shed would help regulate the temperature when its hot or cold outside, in the summer it will be cooler, in the winter it will be warmer.
Maybe they plan to work in the shed, maybe they just want their items in a warmer environment, another benefit might be to reduce condensation so tools don't rust as bad, or maybe they had some insulation to use up instead of throwing it away.
Regardless, an insulated shed beats an un-insulated shed any day
