Using the 7 day average it’s the same graph as the middle of the three you’ve taken from the Government website, covering a shorter time period and displaying against a different scale. The purpose of a 7 day average is to even out peaks and troughs that arise around weekends as fewer deaths get reported and it catches up in subsequent days.
The two other graphs measure something different - by date of death not date reported. These will always drop off towards the end because of the administrative delays in recording dates of death. That’s specifically why the portion most to the right is grey because it is considered incomplete.
This is all semantics really, as I’m sure it’s been covered numerous times, as they’re still dead.

Nomadking explains here - now if you go back and look at the figures for the start of November they’ll have caught up/evened out. The plateau comes later in the month than you suggested.
