OK, your bus clock is 100MHz, your multiplier is 3x, and your corecnf is 
0x10.

grep says this is coming from cpu/mpc8260/speed.c.  The only entry that 
matches the power on print out is:
	{   _3x,  4, " 16-50 ", " 50-150" },	/* 0x10 */

The 0x10 matches your corecnf and this is where the printout comes from. 
  It also is *WRONG.*

You want the corecnf of 0x08, which is *ALSO* a 3x multiplier, but for 
the 100MHz/300MHz configuration that you are running.
	{   _3x,  2, " 33-100", "100-300" },	/* 0x08 */

See the MPC8260 (MPC8280) User's Manual chapter 10.

You should also verify that your XFC (external filter capacitor) the 
correct value (probably OK, but would cause issues).  When it comes to 
hardware folks, trust, but verify! ;-)

 From speed.c:

typedef struct {
	int b2c_mult;
	int vco_div;
	char *freq_60x;
	char *freq_core;
} corecnf_t;
