The only thing uname will give you is the currently running kernel.
The update must not have changed the kernel.

freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list
information below is what is being
referenced on your freebsd-update attempt. (Hint: Look at the Solution
section on how to fix). I am not that familiar with the freebsd-update
utility as I (and I suspect most FBSD users) use the CVS, patch,
recompile method of keeping the systems up-to-date
://www.daemonology.net/freebsd-update/
It explains how older versions of the freebsd-update utility cannot
update files that have been changed or recompiled locally. Newer
versions can, but require manual intervention. (i.e. configuration
options need to be set.).
Hope that helps.

The cause for this confusion is the fact that patches 5 and 6 were for a
userland utility (file) and a library (libarchive), not for the kernel.
So for these patches, the kernel (which contains the release-level
string) isn't rebuilt and so it isn't updated.

You were 6.2-RELEASE-p5 which was the last before the libarchive,
