it could just as easily be a "whatcha doing rabbi" moment. Community notes says "It is not possible to receive a banknote with graffiti on it directly from an ATM in Australia. The Reserve Bank of Australia ensures quality control of banknotes. "
Unlike the US, many countries frown upon defacing currency. At best it devalues the note (that's the case here in Germany, the note is AFAIK technically yours so you can do what you want but it's then no longer legal tender), at worst it's a crime. Seems like the latter is the case in Australia: https://banknotes.rba.gov.au/legal/deliberate-damage/
Which makes it really REALLY unlikely these came from an ATM.

Yea, probably did it himself.

Its frowned upon in the US too but you can redeem it as legal currently fairly leniently.
