Strange Benchmark I spotted while Geocaching

I was out placing a cache and stumbled upon this marker about 3 inches from my final cache coordinates. I couldn't locate it in the database, maybe you guys can help.

 

Coordinates: N 26° 04.923 W 080° 09.655

 

Here is the lame camera phone image:

And here is a contrast enhanced version:

Any info would be appreciated, I have never logged a benchmark, but this was staring me in the face so I figured I snap the pic.

Looks like a private surveyors boundary monument. The initials are probably of the firm name, (Williams, Hatfield, & Stoner, Broward County) the lonely 6 at the bottom was possibly part of a date i.e. 2006, the number in the center the license registration number. That can probably be looked up on line.
