The temperature is coming from the internal die.

The power consumption comes from AMD tech docs for my processor when at maximum load. I use the AMD CPUid utility to verify my processor model as a 680 2200+.
I think he does mean the temperature. The probes are not absolutely accurate. They are relatively accurate (i.e. can be used for rough comparisons of different cooling) but treating the temperature the die reads as meaningful isn't workable.
