I think it's very far fetched. "Only a few high ranking officials knew about it" would imply that no low ranking soldiers were used to carry the explosives there in the first place.

Besides, that's...Really not how war secrets work. It's a fucking island full of bombs. It held no strategic value whatsoever. There is absolutely no reason to believe it was some sort of ultra secret.

And really, armies can't just suppress fucking islands full of explosives sold to civilians like that. If it was that kind of magical secret, it would never be sold to a civilian. It just wouldn't happen.
