N.B. reporting of the edit history is currently fairly unclear and misleading. Most edits made to specimens appear as a pair of 'add' and 'delete' entries, which may not be together in the list. There are also often 'minor' edits, which are made automatically (rather than due to user activity), for example to merge synonym names.

I think this may be the handwriting of Townsend's associate Joseph Woods who had the habit of writing the date as year (2 digits), month, day, so here 5281 means 1/8/1852. Sometimes Woods puts a 'W' monogram in a corner which helps, but not here!
