Small enough to not be noticed by the early warning system but big enough to make it through the atmosphere. I'm also very glad nobody was killed.
I thought the same thing that it must have been a chunk of that meteor passing by but someone told me it was on a completely different trajectory, but I heard that second-hand, so who knows. It certainly makes sense in conventional wisdom since the meteorite struck within a few hours of that close-call.
