CV bolts coming loose ok - but all 6 in a week?

This is it, I don't believe it but all six bolts seemingly unscrewed themselves and the driveshaft slipped out. It Was the drivers side. No snapped bolts.

Guess good news is no multiple thousand $ repair, nothing else was harmed other than losing bolts and some washers. He will be using blue loctite when the bolts get here.

Does this seem to make sense?

How can they all be there the week (and untouched for 8 years) before and then every single one of them fall out within a week after the garage worked on it.

He confirmed that they did not touch the bolts before and had no reason too when installing my exhaust.

It just doesnt seem to be statistically possible without some kind of intervention.
Car was garaged or with me so WTF?

Has anyone lost any of these on either side of the tranny?

Thanks
Bruce
