Probably because it's easier to spot problems with bright colours which are unlikely to be used in a scene then say clearing to black.
In most of my test apps I use a blue colour to clear the screen to so I can spot problems.

Actually those two colors look suspiciously like the Direct3d debug runtime clear colors.
Direct3d uses them for the reasons phantom mentioned.
