'chanced' is the definition.
Both the definition and answer are past participle verbs.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'fine gospel record eventually' is the wordplay.
'fine' becomes 'f' (abbreviation in pencil classifications).
'gospel' becomes 'Luke' (book of the New Testament).
'eventually' says to take the final letters.
The last letter of 'record' is 'd'.
'f'+'luke'+'d'='FLUKED'

'to get' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for fluked that I've seen before include "hit by accident" , "won, luckily" .)
