That's obvious.  When Gnus starts, the code in ~/.gnus is being run.
The code says `set the split method according to the date right now'.
That is, the nnmail-split-methods variable already contains 1998-09-02
or whatever the date is.

I don't know how to make Gnus eval code that sets nnmail-split-methods
anew.  You could use midnight.el, though, to eval the (setq
nnmail-split-methods ...) every day at midnight.
