ntpd won't correct a clock that appears to drift too fast.

Can you check what timecounter is used and switch to a different one?

  sysctl kern.timecounter.choice

reports the available timers and

  sysctl -w kern.timecounter.hardware=clockinterrupt

configures a possibly sane default for virtual machines.
