I wrote pretty extensively about this construction here: https://www.duolingo.com/comment/5562715 I hope that covers it.

någon means 'someone' in some contexts and 'anyone' in others. Here, we're translating not just anyone and that is inte vem som helst in Swedish. Also as _JesseKat said, I recommend reading the post I linked to. I've forgotten what I wrote there, but hopefully it was something useful :)
