Are you holding the left side of the axle with another wrench to prevent it from turning?
EDIT; just remembered that torquing the axle nut is a 2 step process. Lower torque setting initially confirm belt adjustment, then final torque.

I had the same problem with the axle moving when torqueing it up too. I smeared grease on the cams thinking that might work, it didn't. What I finally did was torque the rear axle nut to about 60 ft. lbs while it was on the jack and then drop it down to the ground and finish putting the rest of the torque to it. It seems to have worked the last three times.
