Server demand, plain and simple. Millions of Windows users need to install
the updates and, as MowGreen said, it's physically impossible for everyone
to do so at once. Be patient: If Automatic Updates hasn't downloaded them
by say, 15 November, post back.

If you choose to install via Windows Update website, understand that by
doing so you're pushing all the Automatic Updates users further back in the
queue (which may explain, at least in part, why Automatic Updates hasn't
brought them in for you yet).
