The 'strange reason' being that they were in the east. They were found by the people who weren't interested in them. The Soviets laid emphasis on how everyone had suffered under the Nazis, and they weren't interested in highlighting greater suffering on part of any group.
It'd behoove people like you if you actually made explicit what you are trying to say instead of saying everything by insinuation.

Fabricating evidence that the Nazis ran death camps would have still served the purpose of the USSR, whether the narrative centered Jews or not. They needed to convince their people that the Nazis were an existential threat and an evil of the highest order, in order to justify the monumental loss of life required to defeat the Nazis. Especially since the USSR was in extremely bad shape following the war, so they really needed a narrative to unify around.
This isn't even counting stuff like Order 0428, in which NKVD agents dressed up in SS uniforms and committed massacres of villages while letting a few survivors escape. So that those survivors would go to another village and tell everyone what they saw, thus filling the average Slav villager who just wanted to grill with the terror of an enemy that was out to kill them all.
The camps were uncovered in 1944, not 1941 when the Soviet Union was in crisis and needed to portray the Germans as an existential threat. Ironically, it was their own brutal behavior within the USSR that persuaded people of that, not anything the Soviets fabricated.
Where did you give your information about "Order 0428"?
You neglect to mention the actual atrocity committed by the USSR and pinned on the Germans... Katyn.
That you're a retard.
You know where the extermination camps were located and who liberated them?
All the extermination camps were found by the Soviet Union and not the Americans for some strange reason
