It's been explained.
The odds of any one particular sub being in any one particular place are the same as it being in any other particular place. These subs happened to be in the same place.
What are the odds that I will crash into your car tomorrow? Pretty small, right? Yes, but that doesn't mean that it can't happen. Otherwise wrecks would never occur. Same with this story. Yes, the odds were very small, but there was still a chance that it would happen, as evidenced by the fact that it happened.
The only other conclusion we can draw other than "It was an accident because they both happened to be there at the same time" is that it was deliberate, in which case the question would have to be posed, WHY, was it deliberately done? If you want to sink a sub, there are much more effective ways to do it than to ram into it at very slow speeds. That's why submarines have torpedos.
