The dead sea isnt an ocean, its a land locked sea, and the magnesium comes from local salt deposits. On a global level, sodium is more prevelant, but since the dead sea doesn't connect to the ocean, its not part of the averaging out mechanisms present in the oceans, so local differences matter.
Nothing mysterious about it at all, just basic geology. Sorry.
