Hi,

If you do a search at Entrez for "mt[CHR] AND homo sapiens" you get  
back 872 SNPs.  If you search for one of these on the UCSC browser I'm  
seeing plenty of mitochondrial SNPs.

I tried using the table browser to retrieve all of them in a bed and  
got 893!  I wonder where the others come from.  Putting chrM in the  
position field and requesting snp130 data as a bed did this.

Cheers,

Stewart
