Ahhhh OK Hmmm except according to the DOT/FAA/Procedures for Handling Airspace Matters:
http://www.faa.gov/air_traffic/publications/atpubs/AIR/air2102.html
The recommend format includes the degree, minute and second marks, but, perhaps, without them is common. (40°06'00"N) Anyway it's only about .4 degree off each way.
It's obviously a high altitude signal of some sort.
"Jam" can be disrupt, destroy, obscure or alter. A nice slow shift in GPS coords would do it. If you cut it off you can continue on inertial or dead reconning.
OR... we're passing close to a wormhole...
