I know there has been a push to deploy SPF and DKIM in the .gov TLD, so that may be some of the uptick.  From past experience, I would wager most enterprises are using older, already deployed code that does queries for both TYPE99 and TXT RR's when looking for SPF polices.  For .gov agencies, if they have existing, known code that has the functionality, it's easier to turn it on then upgrade.  Wouldn't account for all of the increase though.
