Just curious, because I cannot seem to find any information explaining this.

No. The _init.cshtml pages (now renamed PageStart.cshtml in WebPages2) are not a feature of Razor, but rather a feature of the WebPages system.
WebPages do not have controllers or other mechanisms to separate view from code, so these were added as a way to help with that.
In any event, MVC does not use them.
