I've read one report (which I now can't find, meh) which implies that it was the ejecta falling back to earth which was responsible.
Fits the biblical description better than the last attempted explanation I saw, which was that an earthquake triggered liquifaction and a mudslide carried all archeological evidence into the Dead Sea.
