It's an estimate as you graph says since there is no way to know the actual hashrate. It's probably just variance.

You're seeing the mixture of > 4 TH/s added to the network + variance.  It can create VERY large spikes in 24-hour estimates.  I say > 4 TH/s because ASICMINER has added > 3 now, and there have been a large number of miners coming back online in response to the recent rallies.
