Token description for [date] pattern is not correct

The pathauto replacement patterns fieldset lists the [date] replacement pattern as so:

[date]
Node creation date (day of month)

However, this is not correct!!! A project I've been working on is having url issues, and after a few weeks of testing - It appears this pattern is the "day of the week" not month. If so the documentation should read:

[date]
Node creation date (day of week)
