I'm not sure how believable are those numbers. Businesses having their best day ever on stripe being exactly 9001 (It's over 9000!) for quite some time now seems rather suspicious.

This metric (Businesses having their best day ever on Stripe) updates ~hourly, the rest are in near real-time. We'll update the tooltip to explain.
Not every company would have their all-time highest sales on this year's Black Friday....
Companies who use Stripe for payments would very much skew towards that. They have a great representation of up-and-coming specialty internet retailers. And the year-over-year numbers are unencumbered this year after being dragged down by pandemic and recession effects in the last few. Plus inflation pushes up the raw numbers.
