can you please try using the wat.pdb file instead
that ships with the solvate plugin in VMD?
the file is located in the VMD's "lib" directory
under "plugins/noarch/tcl/solvate1.4/wat.pdb

load the file, then do:
pbc set {65.4195 65.4195 65.4195}
and compute the g(r) for the water oxygens.

the only way that i can imagine this would happen
is, if your system cell information is not correct.

i assume the trajectory looks otherwise ok,
when being visualized in VMD?
did you do any post-processing?
which MD software did you use and
which file format? is your system
cell orthogonal?
