crontab question

I added the jobs below to my crontab on 4/23. The job didn't run on 4/27 as
expected and successfully ran on 5/4 as it should have.

THE PROBLEM: It ran at 18:00 on 5/11. The job does not call itself. It
totally relies on cron to run it when needed.

Has anyone seen this before, or is there a problem with my cron entries?
