I assumed it was the gravity - isn't the hypothesis now (or at one point anyway) that the early solar system was stabilized once Jupiter found it's orbit and started shepherding destructive comets and such to itself, rather than into the inner solar system?

Of course, what happens when a comet comes in from the opposite side of Jupiter's orbit? Chixulub?
