Unusual lightning strike indications

Is there anyone out there that can offer a little advice ?

Flying along the coast southbound from Oban at 1000ft my MFD suddenly lit up with hundreds of strikes concentrated in two areas around the mouth of the Clyde estuary.......however weather was CAVOK and I could see no activity through the windows, save a couple of very small and harmless cumulous.

My strikefinder is normally very well behaved and quite accurate...

Any ideas what might have caused it....perhaps some naval activity
