I have this peculiar results.txt file:

[Wed Oct 25 11:24:39 2006]
Factoring M39517273 to 2^68 is 26.85% complete.
UID: tsc/backup2, M39517273 has a factor: 199865131970926359991
......some work ...................
[Mon Aug 20 13:01:24 2007]
Factoring M43306817 to 2^68 is 49.64% complete.
UID: tsc/backup2, M43306817 has a factor: 152348425279576748951


I wonder how can the percent be bigger and the exponent be higher and still 
produce a lower factor.
Do anyone have an answer to this?
