Default Born on date?

Last night I had the side cover off the right side and I saw something I'd never noticed before. On the bracket just to the left of the lower rubber attaching grommet for the side cover was " 5-28-08, 15:48pm" . It looked like it had been dome with some sort of a dot matrix type of engraver. I tried to get a picture but I couldn't get it to turn out so you could see it.

Is this the official build day and time of my motorcycle or maybe just the frame? The date on the neck is 06-05. I don't recall anyone mentioning this before, just wondering if anyone else has noticed it.
