It's a bug in smbclient that causes it to pad the tar archive by the wrong amount when it fails on a locked file >2GB in size. We discovered this a year ago and submitted a bug, which is now marked as resolved: https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3592 So a more recent version of smbclient should fix the problem.
