FWIW, I examined the bit pattern in the number 892415538, which is
110101001100010010111000110010, and taken as octets interpreted as ASCII
chars, they look like this:
51.2
So my guess is that your table was corrupted by the filesystem or
something like that. Did your system crash recently? My guess is that
this is a filesystem problem, kernel bug or something like that.
