The location of the blasts was extremely inconvenient for the Russians. If they chose that location, there would have to be a bigger payoff for them IMO.
We don't know enough to speculate on this. Maybe it's related to shipping lanes, maybe underwater geography, maybe they came from Kaliningrad, maybe it was just conveniate for other reasons we dontknow about.
