If true, this event would have stunned all of Jerusalem, unquestionably been documented by numerous sources, as well as other gospels and in terms of shock value would have dwarfed even the resurrection of Jesus. Yet nowhere, not even in historical non-biblical records. Only in Matthew does anyone speaks of this resurrection-related miracle. C'MON.....
Yeah, I think this was probably "creative license" (lit, shit he made up) on the part of Matthew, or whoever wrote that gospel. As you say, there would have been a bit of a stir had that happened.
