It could be the date the VIN was reserved for it or when build started and then the line stopped for a couple of weeks pending the updated parts being added to workflow...
Congrats to you, I have a strong feeling it's true. Production beginning June 24th but a typical production on a fully functional assembly line would be 3 days or so, but in your case there's new parts and new installation methods, I'm sure they've allocated an additional week to work out any real issues for assemblies or parts shortages...
