Odometer loses 20,000 miles

My xB had 100k miles on the odometer. I had the belts changed. When I picked it up the odometer read 80k! Any thoughts?

I,d be concerned with finding a quick way to wear the new belts down so I could turn back the ODO more.

Hmmmmm have only seen this happen once before on a toyota. Guy I knew was running tires that were a few sidewall sizes smaller than OEM (for like 60,000 miles on the odometer).... when he disconnected his ECU to reprogram it there was amismatch between what I guess was stored in the ECU and on the dash, and his odometer went from about 110000 miles to 95000 miles.
