I can't speak to the cause of the jump, but a single entity controlling a large amount of the network is a known weakness in Tor. Essentially, Tor is designed to be a low-latency system. This means that if someone controls both the entry and exist node you use, they can correlate the timing of your packets and de-anonymize you. Having internal nodes problem helps, as would having ISP access.
