I think you are misreading. The offsets are in nanoseconds, not milliseconds.
So you pps is about 100 tp 10000 times better than all of your other sources.
And why do you have your PPS with an offset of .6 sec? Its offset is 0.

Listers,
I was using NTPD with the following configuration for the GPS (Garmin 18xLVC):
### /etc/ntp.conf
driftfile /var/lib/ntp/drift
server clock.fmt.he.net noselect
server ntp-1.vt.edu noselect
server clock.nyc.he.net noselect
server time-b.nist.gov noselect
# Garmin GPS 18 LVC
server 127.127.20.0 mode 0 minpoll 4 maxpoll 4 prefer
fudge 127.127.20.0 time2 0.600 flag1 1 flag2 0 flag3 1 refid PPS
It would report offsets of about 0.001 with low jitter as well.
Trying to use the same unit with chrony + gpsd and this configuration:
# Internet sources
server clock.fmt.he.net noselect
server ntp-1.vt.edu noselect
server clock.nyc.he.net noselect
server time-b.nist.gov noselect
refclock SHM 0 offset -0.6 delay 0.5 refid NEMA noselect
refclock SHM 1 offset -0.6 precision 1e-9 lock NEMA refid PPS
Why do you have a .6 offset for this? The PPS occurs exactly on the second and
has no offset.
# Record the rate at which the system clock gains/losses time.
driftfile /var/lib/chrony/drift
Yields wildly varying offsets :(
