Anecdotally, I've noticed a correlation between spikes in LinkedIn social activity and subsequent job changes, after which the activity (typically) subsides again. The activity doesn't even have to be actively posting, just reacting to posts on their feed.
I think the dynamic you're observing is partly people just reacting to stuff (or if posting actively, fluffing up their "professional presence") as they do a job hunt.
Yeah and updating profile image, profile description and description for work history. Almost no one that isn't looking around for a job does this.
