Hi John de Boer,
Thank you for reporting the problem.
This is very curious. I've confirm the problem.

MayorDefacto, a very knowledgeable IMDb user, provided this insight into what is happening:
Apparently the switch from 28 May to 23 May was a very recent one. Internet Archive, https://web.archive.org/web/20140427154023/www.imdb.com/name/nm0668361 /, shows it as May 28 as of 27 April. In fact it's currently listed that way on the reference view page, imdb.com/name/nm0668361/reference. Shown here, i.imgur.com/3pFkoq7.jpg, in case it gets updated this afternoon.
Apparently, the today's birthday routine isn't connected to the rapid publish system.
