It happens with every one of their readers, even mobi. I suspect the reading-time machinery is a common library. Whatever is wrong is exacerbated by paging around a bit (something that could easily have been avoided by looking for spikes of page turns and disregarding them) but also has a tendency to happen completely on its own when you're just reading at the same rate you always were.

I have no idea why this incredibly obvious bug wasn't fixed many years ago. If the Kindle software was free software I'd have fixed it myself, but nooo you can't possibly allow people to control any part of the software that runs their e-readers.
