I believe ntpdate simply sets the clock. No slewing. It could not, since slewing must assume that the program is running for a while so it can switch off the slewing. ntpdate just runs once.
The adjtime takes an offset and then slews at +/- 500 ppm until that offset has been cleared. It doesn't need the requesting process to still be running.
