I think they're meant to give the standard time for the Netherlands: http://nmi.nl/index.php?pageId=231&lg=nl says: "The group of cesium clocks at NMi Van Swinden Laboratorium (VSL) provides the standard for frequency, time interval and the legal time in the Netherlands. NMi VSL calibrates frequency counters and frequency generators, oscilloscopes, stroboscopes and stopwatches, frequency, time interval, rise time and time base. NMi VSL also provides traceability to accredited laboratories through a Time Service Bulletin.
