9.5960 in DSP 4 mode
9.60 in DSP2 mode
10 in DSP 0 mode

It is just following its normal display rounding code. In this case, it doesn't know that certain digits are hours, minutes, or seconds.

Interesting observation ...
Both of my HP67 (1610S, 1705S) give 9.595999999 in DSP 9 mode. But 0.596000000 for both 0.999999999 (9 times 9 input) and .9999999999 (10 times 9 input).
On the other hand n.595999999 for any integer n between 1 and 9.

Legendary 67 gives n.596000000 for any value of the form n.595999999 for n between 0 and 9. But 1.000000000 for .9999999999 (10 times 9).
