Your initial conclusion as well as the first and last entries reported are all correct. The database apparently is on autopilot in pulling data from the FCC website. Based on the last year's lack of updates that were reported, it appears that the autopilot is the only thing flying the plane and there's no one minding the store....

To the best of my knowledge, W23DX, K27MG, WODK, and WLEH have never existed on the air as actual ongoing broadcasters, except perhaps only long enough to claim with a straight face (under penalty of perjury) that the facility was built. Most likely, the license holder/applicant (DTV America) is trying to do some sort of paperwork shuffle as they try to cash in on the 600 MHz auction.

You'll notice that all of the new applications are for stations that are in adjacent markets to St Louis and the applicant is trying to move them to St Louis where they'd actually have value in the auction as opposed to being in a more rural location.
