Just to explain that: In Craft, there are elements (assets, users, categories, entries) every time you insert one of those 4 types a record in craft_elements is generated with some information about the record. When you insert an ID in the relatedTo it checks the record from craft_elements - in your case it will find a category in the type column - so it knows its a category and not an entry. That's the reason why you can relate everything with everything because there is one really huge table for all records
