If the value of the serials is any indicator of date (as it appears), then udns1.tld.mu and anycast1.irondns.net are serving a version of the zone that is about ten months newer than that being served by ns{1,2,3}.gov.mu (2014110646 vs. 2014010572).

There are instances where dates were once used but an incremental scheme took over, so the serial value still resembles a date--though not a current one.  In this case, who knows?
