The first thing I would is check your server stats. If you have Cpanel it usually has AWstats. It can indicate where the traffic is coming from. Could be someone posted a link on very popular website.
phpBB doesn't have any system to control the amount traffic, that would actually be counterproductive because it would slow it down if it did. To manage traffic you need to do it through the server but you'll have limited options with shared hosting. A third party service like Cloudflare is the best option. They have numerous options for controlling traffic.
