This looks weird, too. 1362773081 minutes would be >2500 years.

Usually, you should see [idle] with almost uptime in minutes, and
[pfpurge] with much less, like in

  # uptime
  10:22AM  up 87 days, 19:36, 1 user, load averages: 0.00, 0.03, 0.05
  # echo "((87*24)+19)*60+36" | bc
  126456

  # ps -axl
  UID   PID  PPID CPU PRI NI   VSZ   RSS MWCHAN STAT  TT       TIME COMMAND
    0     7     0   0  44  0     0     8 pftm   DL    ??    0:13.16 [pfpurge]
    0    11     0   0 171  0     0     8 -      RL    ??  124311:23.04 [idle]

How is time handled on your machine? ntpdate on boot and then ntpd?
Any manual time changes since the last boot?
