yep the right number is 390721968
I have one here..
WDC WD2000BB-00DAA0 WD-WMACK1337522 186.31 GB (390721968 blocks)
(I have JBs as well as BBs buth they have the same number of blocks.)

I guess it is a problem in an OEM chip made by some 3rd party 
manufacturer. (ATA<->USB)
You certainly can not get CAM to fix it depending on the WD string as 
that would be triggered by
firewire too. or atapicam.

The USB umass layer intercepts a lot of commands.. maybe you should 
intercept this one too?
