What is the meaning of coming out of the woodwork?

As soon as he won the lottery, people started coming out of nowhere to ask for money. They're still not enough, but I'm hopeful that there will be more people coming out of nowhere and refusing to follow DeSantis' attempt to permanently erode democracy in Florida. Come out of nowhere (the simple singular present in the third person comes out of nothing, the present participle comes out of nothing, the simple past tense comes out of nothing, the past participle comes out of nothing).
