We've only just started the 6th year of this century... I'd have
expected at least 72 changes.

But a History of the DCU could be neccessary because:
1) Minor continuity changes have been made over the years which need to
be clarified.
2) The history of the DCU is long and complex and needs to be told
again.
3) It's been years since the history of the DCU was last told.
4) There have been changes caused by Time Travel that need to be
considered.
