Funny bug in default Phone utility of iPhone

I was trying to find some way to transfer my Blackberry contacts to iPhone. I took help of Google and found a video which helped me to transfer my contacts. So here's what I did.

1. I transferred contacts to MS-Outlook 2010 using Blackberry desktop application
2. After 1st step, I synced my iTunes with MS-Outlook 2010

Once the contacts got transferred, I tapped on default Phone utility of iPhone. Then I thought to review the contact details. I found a weird issue with utility. I found that every contact have entry under Anniversary with text which never exists in my contact details.

Every contact has an entry of January 1, 4501, When I tried to edit the details I found there is no entry above year 2013.


iOS 7.0
iOS 6.1.3

Seems Apple just give feature but never tested it . Even Apple missed this bug fix in 7.0. Seems Apple is not aware about this bug.
