Maybe the magnitude is less than 2.5? On the other hand, if you just move the bar low enough, even a passing truck generates an earthquake.

Here in the Netherlands there are plenty of small earthquakes due to regular (non-fracking) natural gas extraction. Many have a magnitude between 1.5 and 2, above 2.5 is not that common but it happens. Map 1[^] map 2[^]
Of course fracking is different than just removing gas from between the sand, so the effects are probably different. And enough gas has been removed that in some places the land has sunk a foot, maybe it just takes a while before the effects are significant.
