"Somehow these two things occurred together"

More likely one contributed to the other. If the battery was not getting a sufficient supply of electrons from the alternator and was already marginal due to age, the alternator brush issue likely dealt it the final blow.

Just make sure that you alternator ground wire is also in good shape or you could be fighting an intermittent issue down the road.
