Well, clearly, the only copies of python 2.7 on your system are from Apple (in System/Library and associated with Xcode).
So, either the one you downloaded overwrote one of them, or the install failed and you didn't notice the error go zooming by in a listing.

Can you run the install procedure again and capture the output?
