The maintenance miles being out of whack seems to be a quirk of that dealership, and they are probably basing it on age rather than miles. That does not bother me a bit. However. The miles are inconsistent twice, not just once, and there were very long periods where the car wasn't driven, like in 2008-09. Nothing especially damning, but enough that I'd be very wary.
 
It is weird and I would be hesistant to buy it for sure. If I was thinking about jumping on a plane I would take the time to get on Lexus owner and check it out. Thanks for looking at the carfax.
 
If it's a good deal, then I wouldn't worry about the mileage inconsistency because they where very early in the life of the truck and there is a lot of history after that where the mileage report is good.

My truck will now have a mileage inconsistency, because one piece of paperwork wasn't correct and the state of Colorado would not use the mileage on the truck, even though they looked at the odometer at inspection.

CARFAX is not 100% all the time. I sold a 2002 Honda S2000 that I repainted the original color and CARFAX never showed it, because I paid for it. Also it never showed my oil changes I did every 3000 miles or the other maintainces I did for running it at the track.
