Additional context: only one of those shutdowns has involved a significant fraction of the government suspending its operations for more than 5 days.
Before 1980, "shutdowns" followed different rules so that they did not affect government operations nearly as much. Since 1980, every shutdown but one has been 5 days or less. The Clinton-Gingrich shutdown, which began in late 1995, is the only one to last longer (first 5 days, and then 21 more days after a brief truce).
