That Filename: field definitely didn't come from the Debian archive. At some point I think you must have been using some other source. This repository seems to produce Filename: fields like that: deb http://www.braincells.com/debian sid/ > Size: 85042 > MD5sum: 494c866ea4db3f98a5f5661b772b9c3b ... and indeed the size and md5sum of the pico package you can get from that repository match.
