Looks like a big jump between 1940-1950 due to the gold rush, I imagine a similar jump will probably be seen for 2010-2020

You probably meant to write "1840-1850" if you are referring to the Gold Rush. Another big change that happened in the same decade was a change in the borders of the United States.
