The probability of one occultation is small and it yields no directional information. The probability of a single small KBO occulting more than one star on its traverse of the Milky Way is negligible. The space between the stars is just too great. Even if it were to occur, likely years apart, there would be no way to ascribe the two events to the same KBO.
Well, this is interesting-
Looks like there is an opportunity to check this out...
