Narrative:
We were cleared to land on five mile final following another aircraft . Below 100 feet I head 'aircraft on runway xx go around'. The transmission was garbled. I didn't hear a call sign and quickly asked the captain 'was that for us?'. He and I both saw the previous aircraft had cleared the runway so didn't think this was for us as it was a dual runway operation. After clearing the runway we asked the controller if that was for us and they said yes but no incursion had occurred. And none indicated in the tower.
