Documentation was changed, IIRC in the same commit, to say
[[[[[YY]YY]MM]DD]hh]mm[.ss] instead of MMDDhhmm[[YY]YY][.ss]:
# ./busybox date --help
BusyBox v1.15.0.svn (2009-07-26 13:45:10 CEST) multi-call binary
Usage: date [OPTIONS] [+FMT] [TIME]
...
Recognized formats for TIME:
hh:mm[:ss]
[YYYY.]MM.DD-hh:mm[:ss]
YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm[:ss]
[[[[[YY]YY]MM]DD]hh]mm[.ss]
(It seems that MMDDhhmm[[YY]YY][.ss] format was a bbox invention,
because it's slightly easier to parse. Google didn't show any
other programs which use such format. See a comment in libbb/time.c)

Just checked current git:
# ./busybox date -d 200001231133
Sun Jan 23 11:33:00 CET 2000
# TZ=UTC0 ./busybox date -d 200001231133
Sun Jan 23 11:33:00 UTC 2000
# cd testsuite
# ./runtest date
