You mean 'same distance' - as seen in the systems themselves.

Only if you mean 'same distance' - as seen in the systems themselves.
This would be one single event with coordinates
(x,t) = (x',t') = (x",t") = (x''',t''') = ... = (0,0)

All the coiciding clocks, yes.

No, only all the clocks being present at that one single
synchronization event.
