They have also given away 4 launch titles, a year music subscription and a year of gold. I've got a pic somewhere of that email and I'll post it when I find it again.
*edit* found it- here it is.

It's not fair but let's try not to have sour grapes. I'm just disappointed Killer Instinct is the freebie and not Titanfall

My research has shown that these are distributed in waves, so don't fret if you didn't get an email yet! They are taking Xbox Live gold tenure, gamerscore, and location into account. One theory stated the following rewards for the gamerscore, with tenure modifying it slightly:
80k-Forza DLC
120k-Killer Instinct
300k-Xbox One, games, and gold
I got KI, just barely making the stated threshold!

except 200 k seems to be for the xbox one since 2 people here don't have 300 k that won it.

As I said, tenure modifies the amount needed. So each year of gold equals a certain gamerscore.
