Sure it is. The high points on the graph are number killed per year and Mao was at it 40 years. Look at the yellow area.

Still not enough - I'm not even including general drought and starvation caused by Mao in those numbers - one of his five-year-plans alone killed (roughly) six million people. That woulda certainly caused a bigger spike than shown there.
