Google Finance - now with random number generator feature!

I have a modest portfolio of stocks invested, and keep track of it using Google Finance's portfolio system.
In general Finance Portfolio has been a good system, but since Monday the totals have gone.. mad.
As I type this email it tells me cost basis of my shares totals £4,920,540, and the current market value is £255,356. Neither figure is remotely correct. I'm not sure how they did this since the same figures for each share are correct; so maybe Javascript cannot add up. That I could believe..
