Instant 5gb mobile data spike while I was on wifi

Pixel 8a on google fi flexible plan Yesterday I was at work and got a notification of high data usage and at the same time a 3gb warning message. I checked my phone and it showed a 5gb spike of data to firefox. I was not actively using firefox at the time. Is there a way I can track down what it did? A logfile that could give me a clue? Fi charges me $10 a gb so this is more than a little annoying.

Also it's very upsetting it went to mobile data when I had an active wifi connection.
