Because the time the block started is associated with when the block on the IP was initiated, not when your computer assumed the blocked IP. The Wikia servers know your computer by your IP only. It will look at your IP, see it matched an IP that has been blocked, refuse you access, and tell you the block started whenever the IP was added to its list. It has no knowledge of when your computer was assigned the blocked IP. Assuming anyone is keeping tack of that, it would be your local private network; not Wikia.
