What was the change in REAL unemployment from month to month?  Maybe more people stopped being counted as unemployed due to being dumped into the "not looking" or 'no longer in labor force' category.

This is likely a better arguement explaining it.

It's funny that people don't realize why some people might be confused why the jobs numbers went from an average 160,000 to 873,000 in September.
