You configured a daily rotation pattern (86400 seconds). By default it rotates at midnight in GMT timeone, or using the local timezone if rotatelogs is used with the flag "-l". So I guess either your system runs on GMT, or you used "-l". With 86400 rotation always happens at midnight (GMT or localtimewith -l) and the time 00:00:00 is correct. Note that even the new files created when you start Apache will have the formatted timestamp for the "previous point in time where rotation would have happended", so when using 86400 it would be last midnight (relative to GMT or localtimewhen using -l). Try using a very different interval, like e.g. "90" and observe, whether the files rotate every 90 seconds and now produce more interesting formatted timestamps.
