There was some problem with your DNS and freshclam switched to the old
mode. It seems the old mode is only looking for .cvd files (and not .cld
files) and since freshclam couldn't find one as a workaround it used
a hardcoded static mtime:

    if(stat(file, &sb) != -1 && sb.st_mtime < time(NULL)) {
        Rfc2822DateTime(last_modified, sb.st_mtime);
    } else {
            time_t mtime = 1104119530;

        Rfc2822DateTime(last_modified, mtime);
        logg("*Assuming modification time in the past\n");
    }

Nothing to be worried about, as you can see in the logs freshclam
properly verified your system is using the latest database (and it would
update it otherwise).
