Any ideas what to check for? Does the file location depend at all on the db? Is it building a hash from the db somehow?

It builds a hash from the image name (the 5/51 bit). OTOH, you seem to have lost the entries at the image table (No file by this name exists), OTH, they're listed at Special:Imagelist...
I'd try listing the first entries of the image table (put a limit!), and then checking why they aren't shown, the queries mediawiki is running...
