It's just not certain locations that have strandings, they happen everywhere. The main reasons are meteor airbursts that produce sonic booms and VLF Radio waves. See https://australiasmeteorhistory.blogspot.com/ for Marine Animal Disturbance Alerts.

Electrophonic Meteors are the cause of many of these flash/bangs. They are not sonic booms, but a vibration of the lower atmosphere by VLF Radio waves. The waves travel at the speed of light, hence almost little to no sepration between the light and the sound. www.youtube.com/watch?v=i1IK...
Video captures flash of light before loud boom in Webster, mystery of booms continue
