More information is needed to investigate this issue. Report doesn't even mention Jenkins version. Build log might be interesting as well.

Also might be relevant: Did you delete newer builds? Are there multiple builds with the same build number (i.e. not all builds are actually loaded in Jenkins)?

I do not think this is incomplete; the description explains itself, and is easily reproduced in a current version of Jenkins. It is just the way it is, too late to change.
