Could this absence happen by chance?

How the observed value compares with real history and with fair, independent random draws.

A gap this long is within the range you'd expect from chance alone. Historical frequency does not change the odds of any future draw.

Past frequency never changes the odds of a future draw — this only describes how remarkable the observation is.
