System ID IP Timestamp Issue

I would like to get compile timestamp using System ID Peripheral IP (ver: 19.1.8) which is connected to NIOS-V IP (26.0.0). I am using Quartus Prime Pro 25.1.1. Using the NIOS program I am able to correctly access and print the System ID parameter that has been configured (0x12345679), but the returned timestamp seems to be wrong (printing: Tue Feb 4 18:03:27 2003, versus today's date).

Would you please advise if I am making any mistake in accessing the SysID timestamp, and if there is any other configuration that needs to be done on the IP?

Following is my code running on the Nios-V processor and the corresponding printout
