You misunderstood. The chart is not 9-day.

VIX comes in several timeframes. What everyone calls VIX is actually VIX-30, meaning it is the volatility expectations over the next 30 days. But there are also VIX-90, VIX-180, and VIX-9. The latter measures volatility expectations over the next 9-days.

Here's VIX term structure (and you can see the other vixes)
It's interesting that nobody expects the volatility to die down and the market is predicting this is about as good as it gets.
It also illustrates why for short term trades VIX 9D matters more than VIX.
