You are wrong.  It tries to lookup jpg/gif/png/css/js files 
directly on the file system as static files, but it's 

1) Not cache.  Cache is activated with proxy_cache directive, see 
http://nginx.org/r/proxy_cache.

2) Not related to html files you talked about.

3) Not related to the response in question as headers clearly 
indicate it was originally returned by Apache (note ETag in Apache 
format).

Whether or not the response in question was cached can't be 
concluded from the information provided.  Most likely it was as 
config says to cache all 200 responses (without cookies) for 60 
minutes.
