0) First of all if you enabled root access over the network (SSH or something else) disable it now. Root should not login over networks.
1) you should
know (and tell us?..) if you rent a server at that provider and if your host name resembles the email address in the key (or whatever you edited to be).
2) generating a key generally requires one to enter a pass phrase at the command prompt so this is not something you would miss.
3) if you run 'stat' on both files its modification time should tell you if this was created around installation time.
In the event something is amiss I suggest you start checking access records (last, lastlog), system and daemon logs in /var/log, user shell history and verify system integrity.
