Check the first entry of /etc/adjtime for a really large value. If so, rm /etc/adjtime, adjust the system clock, and set the hardware clock. Your system somehow got to think it has to correct for a massive systematic drift in the hardware clock. More information is to be found eg. in the adjust section of hwclock's man page.
