We finally have an answer!
According to Trust No One, the Official Third Season Guide to the X-Files, there is no significance to the numbers 111471 or the letters JTTO -- they just keep appearing to keep us confused and guessing! Well, as long as they go through the trouble to tease us, I'll go through the trouble to keep listing them!
-- by the way -- an excellent suggestion by Diana Klingle-Wilson -- that the significance of 11:14 is that it is 10:13 plus one (10+1 = 11, 13+1 = 14 -- 11/14)
