Interesting, but can't this be explained by the distribution of file sizes. There will generally be many small files but fewer and fewer larger files. So there will be more 1k files than 2k files, more 2ks than 3ks, more files between 10 to 19k than 20 to 29k, more files between 100 to 199k than 200 to 299k etc.

That's actually the reason behind this law in general :)
