It was a poor call. In fact, quite a lot of "experts" would advise that it's not even a very strong hand, and they'd be right. Many of them wouldn't play it into a raised pot period (depending on their position) and certainly not into a pot raised as significantly as this.
The poster who mentioned that the all-ins were "fishy" is right too, though determining exactly what creates the "fishiness" is difficult. For instance, it could easily be one of those guys who prefers to slowplay monsters into the flop (why, I have no idea, but there are those who do). Once he sees that there are a lot of callers, he may reraise hard to try and pare the field. Or he may see that now there's a sufficient pot for him to make a move right there. Or, he may just suck. Problem is, there's no way to tell exactly what it is.
As previous posters have already mentioned though, the proper play is to choose your battle a little more wisely. It's simply too big a risk for too little likelihood of reward. You'll have better opportunities later. Don't fall into the trap of believing that just because you went in with the best hand, it must have been the right call. It wasn't. You were just in a hand with morons.
