Hello everybody.
Yesterday I did 4 sets of deadlifts.
I was thinking, as everybody told me on the internet, that deadlift were the best exercise for building a massive back.
However, today, instead of feeling soreness in any part of my back, I just feeling some fatigue in my hamstrings. No feeling at all in the back.
So, how could a back exercise target principally a leg muscle ?

Hamstrings are a big mover in the deadlift. The entire posterior chain is.
Your individual form can help sway which muscles are emphasized more. If you post a video it might make things more clear.
It could also be that your legs are less trained/weaker than your low back so it is feeling it more.-

I usually get sore in my hams, glutes and lower back when I do deadlifts
