Unpopular opinion, but I think this data is skewed by survivorship bias. Of course the top 0.1% of startups will have older founders - they've had more time to accrue the necessary experience and connections. But for every successful 45-year-old founder, there are countless others in their 40s who never made it past the seed stage. The real question is whether age is a causal factor or just a correlation.
