The system module's hook_permission() implementation returns the permission “administer files”, but that permission is not used anywhere in core.

It was introduced in #115267-16: Simplify File Uploads, Centralize File Validation and Quotas, Fix File Previews.... without any explanation, so I assume that it was added by mistake.
