This map is useless without a p value. This could all be random noise.

We also need pp, v, b and a values.

Yeah. IDK what is meant by a P value but I agree that I suspect the methodology used to create this is designed to make the data more interesting than it really is.

As in, how much more frequently is "enema" searched for in Alaska than elsewhere, and are there more vanilla terms like "college" which occur more frequently in Alaska than elsewhere.
