Welcome to FlyerTalk. When asking about American Express it is important to specify the country because policies, practices, products, benefits and rewards differ.
American Express Platinum charge cards issued in the USA do not include any Hilton status as a regular benefit. You can see all of the benefits here:

You can read about an expired offer for Hilton status here:

Apologies. I should have clarified. The card is in the US. The reason I ask is because I was upgraded at Hilton, while traveling in 2013, to a "H-Honors room" but I never signed up for H-Honors nor do I have any status with them.

If this happened once it means nothing. The hotel needed to put you in a room, and they happened to have vacancy in that category. It if happened regularly there might be something to it, but probably not related to American Express.

Yours was not an upgrade, but you simply got a room on a designated floor.

I hope that AMEX offers the same deal they did last year for free HH Gold for AMEX Plat.
