Babies have much more sensitive hearing than adults.  I'd be inclined to 
wonder if they were picking up on obnoxious sounds that you or I might 
not be able to hear.  And don't forget that one crying baby can trigger 
every baby for miles around to join in.

I would also expect there to be considerable randomness in the number of 
babies in the restaurant on that particular day, the personalities of 
the babies present, ambient temperature, time of day, noise levels, air 
quality--all the many things that can get a baby's attention in a 
negative way.
