Is it "quality of historic data" or "real price gap"?

Location: Russian Federation,
I was testing a strategy on very long period and got total disaster at one point. The reason - enormous price gap within period 13:39 04.04.2007 -> 13:44 04.04.2007 UTC on EURJPY.
I'm curious if this is "just a glitch in historic test data" or was it for real?
Having this in future will wipe out any deposit in one moment.

Here is portion of data exported via View -> Historical Data Manager: Time Range 13:39 04.04.2007 -> 13:44 04.04.2007 UTC, EURJPY ticks

This is how it looks like on Ticks chart

Problem is also noticeable on 10sec chart (I guess it is rendered from ticks), but gap is not displayed on 1min+ charts.
