They keep getting farther apart, too.

First occurrence this century was 1 Jan 2001.

Next occurrence, 2 Feb 2004, was 3 years, 1 month, later.

Next occurrence, 3 Mar 2009, was 5 years, 1 month, later.

Next occurrence, 4 Apr 2016 (today), was 7 years, 1 month, later.

Next occurrence, 5 May 2025, will be 9 years, 1 month, from now, and so on.

The spread between occurrences increases as the sequence of odd integers; 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11,...
