What PG version is this?

Are you sure that the REINDEX actually does anything, as opposed to
merely retrying the data import?  I'm thinking you may be having
problems with OID collisions after OID wraparound, which is something
8.1 should defend against but no earlier version does.

What do you get from
        select count(distinct chunk_id) from pg_toast.pg_toast_635216540 ;
