Yet tonight, it says it's just over a minute. HA! Sure enough, when I touch down, it says the time has been "updated" to 4:48. Why are these times continually being broken?

At some time in the past the wrong time was recorded and added to the default database, most likely due to the flight finishing early without InFlight being aware that the flight was cut short. Blizzard has a habit of introducing new ways that a flight can be interrupted. So, until InFlight gets updated to recognise them, it will think that the flight has completed normally and record the time as such.
The only way for these flights to be corrected in the default database is for someone to upload their data that has the corrected flight time. As no-one has has done that, it still has the wrong time.
