I also uploaded to Strava. I don't have Summit for my single bike Strava account, but Elevate works. It has reasonable numbers. With the same FTP, Elevate showed 9', 5', and 3' for zones, 5, 6, and 7. Do you know why this difference between software?

Accumulated minutes in an 11 watt range would certainly be smaller than the amount of time spent at 200+.
11 watts is a really small window, even more so when you consider you're only seeing 3 sec averages. 23 mins above threshold isn't really uncommon or abnormal, especially on way long rides. I've done 20-30 mins above threshold in just an hour long crit before.
