North of Lake Baikal?
That's awfully close to the Tunguska 1908 event.

Is there a meteorite magnet in the area, or what?

These events (maybe not to this scale) happen way more often than was earlier believed. There was a similar event over Northern Canada in 2000.

Most such events (70%) would happen over the oceans and Siberia and Northern Canada are a good chunk of real estate.
