What shows sea level stopped rising in 2006 is that prior to 2006, each year peaked higher in a fairly linear fashion. In 2006 the graph started going sideways. The “trend line” that starts at the beginning shows a rise. A trend line that starts in 2006 would show flat.

A trend line that starts 5000 years ago would show a decline of about 2 meters.
