There is also a mystery before the event, many toads were out on 5/11 and went to the same way. The specialist in Chian said, the meaning of this phenomena implies the environment here is suitable to live.
Another view point from http://yeinjee.com/2008/toad-migration-in-jiangsu-china/:
Thousands of toads were spotted at a bridge in Taizhou, Jiangsu province, China, on May 9. According to local expert, the toads were enduring a mass migration because of the depleting oxygen resource in a nearby river.

From the pic it seems like the chance of survival for the toads are not looking good on the road too…
