Plausible is a real stretch IMO. It would only be plausible if manna and water from rocks was plausible, because there is no other way millions of people and animals could survive in the desert - not when the population of Egypt, the most productive farmland of the world, was only 3 million at that time.
Of course, there may have been some real events that inspired the myth of Exodus.
Almost the same way J.K. Rowling may have been inspired to by some events in her life to write Harry Potter, witchcraft-supporting, Devil's
story that it is.
