Are you just looking at the total number of fires in Figure 1? Figure 2 shows that annual wildfire-burned area has been increasing in the last 40 years. Figures 3, 6 and 7 also back that up.

I guess the larger the wildfires are the lower the number of individual fires are. When everything is burning there will be only one fire.
