Comment #1 on issue 3397 by [email protected]: Date.setUTCMonth() produces wrong output
http://code.google.com/p/v8/issues/detail?id=3397

Firefox behaves similarly. Consider this:

var date = new Date(2014, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0);
// What you set here is actually 1st Feb 2014, since for some reason, months are numbered zero-based.

date.getMonth()
1  // This means February!
date.getDate()
1  // Feb the first.
date1.getTimezoneOffset()
-60  // CET is 60 minutes ahead of UTC, and because of this...

date.getUTCDate()
31  // UTC time is still on the 31st of ...
date.getUTCDate()
0   // January
date1.getUTCHours()
23  // Late evening.

date.setUTCMonth(3)  // Sets the month to... you guessed it ... April!

Note how April only has 30 days. So the date of 31 overflows and carries over to the month.

date.getUTCDate()
1   // That's 1st of ...
date.getUTCMonth()
4   // May
date1.getUTCHours()
23  // Yep, still late evening.

That means that in central europe, we are at midnight, which counts towards the next day.

date.getDate()
2  // 2nd of ...
date.getMonth()
4  // Still means May
