Wouldn’t this single event have a super high chance of generating fossils though giving that a) it wiped out a ton of life in one go and b) it released a huge amount of debris ready to cover things up nicely and preserve them?

Yes. What was incredibly lucky was the fossil stratum being exposed again at a time when we could spot them. There must be megatons more of this stuff, wholly inaccessible.
