What was the vector by which they gained access? I have fail2ban, password login turned off, key access, airtight firewall, etc. and now am worried.

If they exploited a service or Web app they might have gotten shell access. The chance of gaining access through ssh with fail2ban is extremely unlikely, unless fail2ban was badly configured.
