It is not an old tire. Out of all 4 tires only one has this spot in two places. What is the reason for this spot.? Never seen these spider marks before. No dry rot anywhere else.

Those tires shouldn't be on any vehicle that's in an area that gets any snow or good amounts of rain.-JMHO.
 
Lots of possibilities, some already mentioned. We need to know more about the service conditions. Things like age, make/model, what part of the country they're in.

But I don't think it's anything to worry about.
 
It almost looks like you parked on a rock/object for a period and that extreme deformation caused a localized issue.

The tires look almost done anyway.
 
Looks like impact damage to me, and they are close to wear bars, probably 5/32nds or so. I wouldn't run them much loner.

What is the date code on them. Looks something like "3221" as a sample.
