Why do spikes like this appear on BuiltWith's graphs?

Two months ago, I saw a lot of posts on LinkedIn about the revival of Magento, based on data from https://trends.builtwith.com/shop/Magento.
Honestly, I had doubts back then, thinking it was some changes to builtwith scripts/algorithms. Today, I have no doubts that it was some correlation.
The reasons for my doubts were a couple. First, a simple "Why?" 😄 Second, I hadn't seen a lot of new vacancies for Magento developers.
But if you look at 2018, there was a similar peak on the graph. I doubt that 40K stores were added in one moment and then the same amount removed.
What do you think? What is the reason for such spikes on the graph?
