Mmm, I'm not sure. The known variant of this problem only affects certain
system tables (the nailed-in-cache ones):

This is evidently a user table:

I'd wonder about hardware failures, myself. Does the table appear
to have lost a lot of rows that should have been there?
Other interesting questions are whether the table has recently undergone
a TRUNCATE, or deletion of a large fraction of its rows followed by
VACUUM (probably VACUUM FULL).
