google location history - Why does my Android phone think it was in Japan?



According to Google location history, I was in Tokyo in February. It could be that I had so much saké I'm forgetting something important, but as far as I know I've never been to Japan.

But what technical issue could cause the location to be off by ~6000 miles?
