Umm, WEVD has had the same calls since it first went on the air.  Like many 
stations, including some heritage "big names" like WBZ (which used to be at 
990 kHz) and WRKO (which as WNAC didn't get to be at 680 till the 1950s), 
WEVD had a chance to get a different frequency, and their ownership took 
it.   There are actually very few stations around today on the frequency 
they were first assigned way back when.
