I've never heard a particular reason why the Millennium Problems were of special interest. They had resisted solution despite significant effort, but I don't know if Riemann or Navier and Stokes had ever singled those out as especially high priorities. They started as ordinary problems and became known for their durability.
So I'm not sure if it's something we should expect from a machine, just because we don't expect it from mathematics either. Maybe the machines will interrupt that process because we've changed how we go about looking, but perhaps not because old problems are solved.
