Why does Siberia get so cold?

What factors make the weather in Northeast Siberia (Yakutia especially) so much colder than rest of the world? Temperatures seem to reach -60C (-76 F) every 2-3 years. 

The area is at similiar latitude as other areas (Finland, Alaska, Canada) that don't seem to get quite so cold.

Being far inland, away from the moderating effect of oceans, is a contributing factor (this is why Minnesota winters are so much colder than winters in Washington state, despite being at the same latitude).
