1). The record says the left Sinai (Numbers 10:11), and they went three days journey (Numbers 10:33). 

2). Though it does not say in the Numbers 10:11-36 passage that Israel pitched camp here at Kibrothhattaavah,  according to Numbers 33:16 when Israel left Sinai the next stop was here at  Kibrothhattaavah. All the material between Numbers 10:11 and Numbers 11:35 is to be included here at Kibrothhattaavah or the Graves of Lust. It does not say how many but there were many that died because of lust. That is why it was named Kibrothhattaavah

a). Numbers 11:31-34  And there went forth a wind from the LORD, and brought quails from the sea, and let them fall by the camp, as it were a day's journey on this side, and as it were a day's journey on the other side, round about the camp, and as it were two cubits high upon the face of the earth.

11:32 And the people stood up all that day, and all that night, and all the next day, and they gathered the quails: he that gathered least gathered ten homers: and they spread them all abroad for themselves round about the camp.

11:33 And while the flesh was yet between their teeth, ere it was chewed, the wrath of the LORD was kindled against the people, and the LORD smote the people with a very great plague.

11:34 And he called the name of that place Kibrothhattaavah: because there they buried the people that lusted.

3). It says that when Israel left Kibrothhattaavah, the next camp was at Hazeroth, which matches Numbers 33:16, 17.

a). Numbers 11:35 And the people journeyed from Kibrothhattaavah unto Hazeroth; and abode at Hazeroth.
