I saw the M6.0 on the map, but did not realize it was deadly until I saw this CNN story:

It is a shallow oblique normal slip quake: 13 km depth.
Perhaps what is interesting about this is the landslides and that it is monsoon season. Landslides in a California quake might be worse if the ground is very wet (if the water table is up).
