Would be interesting to know how many sigma off the mean that 50 minutes was.

There is no sigma in an exponential probability distribution, which is the distribution of time intervals between events in a Poisson process.

In theory, the probability of an inter-block interval exceeding 50 minutes is about 0.0067, or one out of 148.

If that's true, then we should get a fifty-minute block almost every day.
