It was acknowledged as a bug by a dev. The value went from 0 to 255 and then started over. So 256 becomes 0. It's basically a feature now.

What I read was that it never happened in the old versions and it wasn't a bug in civ5, in that, it was a nod to the legend. But apparently Sid Meier said it didn't happen in the original games.

Thing is, it did happen in the earlier games and I doubt Sid programmed all the games himself. They just put his sexy face on them like the Nintendo Quality Control stamp.
