I had the same problem on an Ubuntu 11.10 installation occurring some days ago.
In Ubuntu software center the flash plugin was titled "Adobe Flash Plugin 10"
and subtitled "Adobe Flash Player plugin version 11".
My workaround was to use synaptic to install adobe-flashplugin which replaced
the formerly installed adobe-flashplugin:i386. I don't know why and how this
32bit software was installed on my 64bit system...

Title:
Incorrect Flash Player version
Status in “flashplugin-nonfree” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
start:
In firefox, I click Tools / Addons / and it reports I have shockwave flash
10.1.
Then, I click on "Check to see if your plugins are out of date". Flash 10.1
shows as out of date.
I click the Update button which takes me to an Adobe page which says "Adobe
Flash Player version 11.1.102.62" is current; please do an update.
I select "APT for Ubuntu", and click the Download button, which redirects me
to Ubuntu Software Center.
After waiting a long time watching the icon rotate, I give up, and click on
"All Software", and search for "flash".
It turns up title "Adobe Flash Plugin 10" subtitled "Adobe Flash Player
plugin version 11" [ ok, which is correct? ]
I removed the version that was there [ verson 10.1 ].
I installed the current version. I check the "more info" button, and it says
it was installed today.
goto start
Apparently the software center is still installing an out-of-date
version of adobe flash player.
I'm on Ubuntu 11.10
