MATLAB: X 10^5 appears in x-axis with datetick

datetick

Hello,
I am creating some timeseries plots and using the datetick function to displays years on the x-axis. The years show up fine but 'x 10^5' also appears in the bottom right corner. Here is the code:
bar(Date,speiNV{1,1});
datetick('x','yyyy');
xlim([Date(1) Date(end)]);
ylim([-3 3]);
ylabel('index value','fontsize',16,'fontweight','bold');
set(gca,'fontweight','bold','fontsize',16);
title('3-month SPEI');
Here is a sample date: Date(1) = 692136
I've used this method many times before and haven't had this problem…can anyone tell me whats going on?
Thanks, Dan
