When the online users number spikes like that, it's most likely due to a search site's bots indexing your site. This is "normal." It's unlikely that these are individual browsers hitting your site all at the same time unless there's some reason for your site to be big news all of a sudden.

Why don't you take a look at your site's access logs (not in Tiki's admin pages) but in your domain's control panel or other way to see Apache logs, etc.? You can see exactly what agents/browsers/spiders are accessing your site.
