I tried fischer time control 10+10 and it simply got 610 seconds to finish the game after move 256. I guess that in the case of Fruit Fritz told it that it has 2 hours or 3 hours to finish the game inspite of the fact that it had no more than few seconds on the clock. Note that I did not play a full game(I was too lazy to wait to see it happen) but copied a game of almost 256 moves and played against Movei and later looked at the logfile. Uri
