True but it's not about someone distracting you; it's about a deliberate action on your behalf.
Spell duration "concentration"
When you made your first standard action other than concentrating on Dispel Magic (i.e. cast Spiritual weapon) you deliberately opted for releasing the spell you concentrated upon.
Regardless, it's a pretty good assumption that by exploring this small area without rushing headlong into any troubles took seven minutes, thus the spell wore off anyway. From this perspective this discussion is better conducted now than in a tighter situation where player characters or their wealth can be seriously affected by aborted concentration.
