I come up with better odds... about 1.48% or 1 in 676.

I found 9 events in the past 100 years meeting your prediction
criteria that were not aftershocks of something larger.

Using the Jones consecutive windows method.

9/21/1922 to 9/21/2022 is 36526 days.
Prediction window is 6 days, so that's 6087.6667 windows.
9 had hits, so that's 9/6087.6667 = 0.001478

Thank you, Brian. Quite right, sir. I mistakenly included
an aftershock of the big Mendocino EQ in 1992, and I
mistyped an extra zero early in my arithmetic. Chance
odds of 1 in ~600 are sufficiently remote for me. (I
should stay in my lane and stick to squirt-gun painting.)
