Thinking about this and what would I do to try and prevent it when the ground shakes again. Thinking I would get a board long enough to go from front to rear jack. On each end, I would counter bore a hole about 1/2" for the leg to sit down in. This would keep the jacks at the same distance. Since you have a slant, I would add a wedge under the rear jack and another but larger wedge under the front jack. Done right, the board would be level and the wedges flat against the concrete.
If you wanted to go extreme, add a pin hole at front and rear to allow a cross bar to be installed to hold the opposite side at the proper distance. Add a diagonal and then everything would be completely locked and not allow any walking during the shaking.
Hope you neighbor is only seeing a strain on the jack from the walking action down the slope.
