Hi,
I guess that your large numbers are in map projection units (probably
metres?), and not lon,lat degrees.

If you have a look at the OpenStreetMap generate_image.py script (http://
svn.openstreetmap.org/applications/rendering/mapnik/generate_image.py) you
will see that it starts off with bounds as a lon,lat bounding box and
converts it into spherical mercator projection metres.

I found the mapnik getting started guide quite good too (
http://trac.mapnik.org/wiki/GettingStarted).

Hope that Helps.

Graham.
