FYI, spiking Vitamin D levels in the blood weekly might not be the best idea, though it's not exactly proven. There's a theory that spiking Vitamin D like that can promote blood vessel calcification. There's some more theory that Vitamin K administered at the same time might help.

It could be safer to do 5,000 IU seven days a week than spikes of 50K once a week.

Watch out, though. I was on a similar daily dose and ended up with Vitamin D levels touching the upper limit. Too much Vitamin D is not good for you.

Can't say without seeing the labels, but I wouldn't expect a cup of almond milk to have more than 10-20% of your daily value.

IIRC supplementing K with D also helps D to be absorbed and/or utilized better.
