Strange output from lm_sensors with HP Compaq 6510b

I'm having troubles understanding what my CPU temperature is when using lm_sensors on my HP Compaq 6510b.

$ sensors
acpitz-virtual-0
Adapter: Virtual device
temp1:       +46.0°C  (crit = +105.0°C)                  
temp2:       +30.7°C  (crit = +108.0°C)                  
temp3:       +50.0°C  (crit = +110.0°C)                  
temp4:       +50.0°C  (crit = +256.0°C)                  
temp5:       +49.0°C  (crit = +108.0°C)                  

coretemp-isa-0000
Adapter: ISA adapter
Core 0:      +51.0°C  (high = +100.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)  

coretemp-isa-0001
Adapter: ISA adapter
Core 1:      +51.0°C  (high = +100.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)

This is not the usual output that everyone else seems to get. I'm guessing Core 0 and Core 1 are the CPU temperatures? But why does the wiki say that I should expect some other format? And why don't I get that type of output?
