Creation date of Feb 14th 1946 - Why?

Can someone let me know if there is something magical about a file having its creation date set to:

1946-02-14 08:34:56 +0000

I am guessing it is a special flag used by Finder to let it know that a file is busy (since even after a restart a file with such a creation date is shown dimmed)
Am I correct?

Are there any other magic dates that are being used?

FYI - I am writing a FUSE file system and need to prevent such dates ending up at the back-end.

Thanks
