Probably just a coincidence(?)

Past periods of slow rotation over the last 100 years have coincided with more earthquakes than average...

"The numbers of earthquakes that have occurred each year in the past century are well known. The changes in Earth's rotation rate are also well known," ....

On average, there were about 15 major earthquakes per year since 1900. However, during certain periods, the planet sees between 25 and 35 earthquakes greater than magnitude 7 in a year... those periods coincided with times when the Earth spins more slowly.....

Because NASA tracks the length of the day to the microsecond, these slowdowns in Earth's spin can be predicted five years in advance...
