Concerning the "how did you know it was 600 seconds" - unfortunately, the property is write-only, so it won't show you its current value when using lipc-probe -v . But it could be determined indirectly, by looking at the lipc-probe output:

[root@kindle root]# lipc-probe com.lab126.powerd -v
	w 	Int	touchScreenSaverTimeout
	w	Int	deferSuspend
	w	Int	wakeUp
	w	Int	rtcWakeup
	r	Str	state	[active]
	w	Int	suspendGrace
	w	Int	addSuspendLevels
	rw	Str	logLevel	[Current log level=info
(Possible levels: all, perf, debug[9-0], info, warn, error, crit, none)]
	r	Int	battLevel	[83]
	rw	Int	preventScreenSaver	[0]
	rw	Str	logMask	[0xffff0000]
	rw	Int	flIntensity	[12]
	r	Int	flMaxIntensity	[24]
	w	Int	abortSuspend
	w	Int	powerButton
	w	Int	flStartup
	r	Str	status	[Powerd state: Active
Remaining time in this state: 597.696795
defer_suspend:0
suspend_grace:0
prevent_screen_saver:0
drive_mode:off
Battery Level: 83%
Last batt event at: 83%

batt_full=0
Battery logging: On
]
	r	Int	isCharging	[1]

This was right after touching something on the screen.

However, I'm not sure how to determine when it will enter suspend mode. (Actually, does the PW ever enter it at all?). This is the relevant lines from the output in screensaver mode:

	r	Str	status	[Powerd state: Screen Saver
Remaining time in this state: Unknown

Maybe toying around with the loglevel property and looking at the logs could shed more light on this.
