You said it had been freezing. Is it possible that when it jumped to the 203XXX that it was making up for lost time and the 203XXX number is correct?

On Jeeps, the mileage is stored in the dash cluster which has a multi-pin connector on the back. You might try pulling the cluster, giving the pins a slight bend, and re-installing it back.
