Those are back dated error messages. Has the date been updated since you have posted this problem? Now I am seeing 68 pages in the index which could be caused by the sitemap. There have been many discussions on here with people who seen their site get droppped from index after submitting a Google Sitemap, when the site was removed from the Google account the site count went up in the index. Nobody knows the exact reason for this but 'I believe' that when you submit a sitemap you are giving Google a better edge of looking at your site for problems or to determine the age factor which can result in pages getting dropped from the index.
