Zechariah 6

Zechariah 6:8
Then He cried out to me and spoke to me saying, "See, those who are going to the land of the north have appeased My wrath in the land of the north."
What were the horsemen doing, that appeased God's wrath?  The text doesn't say anything one way or the other.  I find this kind of worrisome, because other passages point to a bad answer.

The only other reference to horsemen I can recall is in Revelation, where they brought war, and plague upon the places they visited.  In that case, it's possible God's wrath is appeased because there have been many deaths, enough to balance the scales.  But in order to balance those scales, almost all of those people would already be dead.
