The numbers fluctuate due to newly entered cases and removal of resolved cases.

Some of the these numbers are high due to sheer population, but it is also impacted by the fact that some areas are better at reporting their cases to the FBI-NCIC. These stats can only reflect the cases listed by law enforcement to the FBI-NCIC.

A spike/ drop in numbers does not necessarily mean an increase in missing and unidentified, it can means that more cases are being entered/ removed into the system.

Older cases are often added to the NCIC years after the actual event initially took place.
