I manually installed Squid package 4.8-1 by yum utility while logrotate 3.8.6-19 was already installed.

When I installed Squid package, It’s has been created automatically /etc/logrotate.d/squid as I showed in previous mails and where there is written 'squid -k rotate’. 
My question is: if I use logrotate process why in /etc/logrotate.d/squid is recalled ''squid -k rotate’ ?
I thought 'squid -k rotate’ started another file rotation in addition to logrotate.
