Do you have security cameras, or a ring doorbell, or Alexa? They can cause data spikes. Additionally, do you have one drive loaded on any devices? It can start doing backups daily and one person I assisted with this found they had installed on an android phone, which would automatically send up a backup of their phone daily, over WiFi. SOME android phones, will automatically turn on WiFi, 2when in a known location. My S22 Ultra does that. Last but not least, any video streaming? Netflix? If someone is watching something that's 4k, it can use 8GB/hr.

Having Outlook '.pst' files on OneDrive can be a problem. They may grow to a few Gigabytes, and there is no way to perform an incremental backup. So, every time you open email, the whole thing backs up. With that said, video cameras that don't have 'away' mode set can really become hogs, especially if there are several.
