If the internet went away indefinitely, what things would you wish you had downloaded before it happened?

Honestly, I think I'm mostly set already (as I often go backpacking and there's no internet there). I have offline maps for the country I'm in and neighboring regions downloaded in OsmAnd and mapy.cz (two sources just in case), Wikipedia in Kiwix, and my custom NixOS setup as a bootable ISO on a flashdrive. I'll probably miss being able to watch science/maths edutainment on YouTube, but it's not something I'd download.

annas-archive.org, arxiv.org, and maybe internet archive too if possible

I don't disagree with the sentiment but I think having accessible, entertaining education resources would also be a huge boon. They're sure not going into depth on the topics but I imagine getting people "on the hook" could be huge, and then they can find other more educational resources from others in the community.

Depends on how up-to-date your install image is. If you downloaded the ISO 6 months ago, chances are, the build you downloaded is out of date (doubly so if it's Arch). Most installers have an online option that will download the updates and install the newest version, but if you don't have access to the internet, then all you have is the data included in the ISO that you got 6 months ago.

Wikipedia would be the most valuable thing if I had to pick one, I guess.
An maybe the "your jimmies are eternal video" in case I need to unrustle my jimmie ever again.

Only as good as you know about the topic, try doing a http server from just a Wikipedia page

Not too hard with a single server as your node and everyone being wired into it. Obviously you would have to code every website and have all required dependencies there already.
