Manson had been to the house on Cielo Dr. months before the murders looking for record producer Terry Melcher. In fact Melcher did live there at one time and he owned the home which he rented to director Roman Polanski and his wife Sharon Tate. Manson was furious after Melcher took a pass on Manson's music. So the murders on that August night in 1969 were not entirely random.

The next night Manson ordered the killing of Leno and Rosemary LaBiana, their killings only slightly more random than the Tate murders. Manson had been to a house in the neighborhood of the LaBianca's so he was familiar with the area.

Manson knew that record producer Terry Melcher owned the house and in fact had lived there before Melcher rented in to movie director Roman Polanski and his wife Sharon Tate. Manson had been to the Cielo Dr. home months before the murders looking for Melcher. Manson was furious at Melcher when Melcher took a pass on recording Mason's music so it was not entirely random that Manson ordered his 'family' to that address.

In a lessor known fact the LaBianca's house where the Family murdered Leno and Rosemary the next night after the Tate murders Manson had been to a neighboring home on the same street as the LaBiana's home. So he was familiar with that neighborhood also. The whole point of the murders was to get attention. Killing wealthy, white people was how he chose to do it.

If he did, he kept it to himself. I imagine this rumor began as the myth that Sharon Tate's baby was cut out of her when Manson's family members killed her. Her baby, a boy they planned to name Paul, was not removed from Tate until her autopsy.
