Rohwer inconsitencies part deux

<HTML>On December 29, 1942 the norwegian steamer Ingerfem was sunk by U-631. This incident is listed on page 144 in Rohwer. The book claims that Ingerfem was a straggler from convoy ONS 154. The strange thing is that Ingerfem was sunk in the approximate position 59N/21W, while other ships belonging to ONS 154 were sunk in position 43N/27W, look at the same page in Rohwer.

Is it really possible that the Ingerfem was part of ONS 154 when the sinking position is so far away from where the convoy actually was at that date? Is the position wrong or is it a typo in Rohwer.
