Question Basis for calculated Calorie Consumption?

Hello, I am quite curious about the basis for Consumed Calories in T3 since it really does not seem to make any sense to me... I ran roughly the same distance in about the same time with two days apart... the T3 however claims that the calorie consumption was about three times greater in the second lap...!

That does not seem very plausible to me and the main difference between the laps was the average heart rate (see attached picture) so can someone provide any info to this mystery?

As a sidenote, am I the only one who find that the accuracy of Suunto heartbelts detoriate really quickly with frequent use to become really unreliable and useless in just a few months?
