So 3 out of 4 predictions were correct and the odds on a mag 6 quake in a 3 day window are about 10%. This puts you way above chance for this small sample, but that's no reason to fault USGS.

Your long term average is below chance and that's what matters.

why the first one can not be considered
The prediction was 28th/1st march ie window is up to 2nd Noon UTC
Thus it is 4 out of 4 hits!!
