Default MEA oddity near Harrisburg, PA?

In a previous article, Sam Spade said:
Those in the NE are because of VOR stations that are shooting craps and
fail flight inspection below those very high altitudes.


Like when they built the new fire station on KROC to the west of the VOR,
and suddenly the MEAs on the airways to the west went up to 6,000 feet
when there isn't any terrain or towers above 1,500.
