You are getting ~7:1, but if you look outside the odds, I think you have good justification for calling here.
For one, his stats look somewhat retarded, so it is quite possible that he could do this with a hand you beat (though it is over a small sample, but this could also prove my point).
Also, and more importantly, calling the river is good from a metagame standpoint. At 2/4, some players will pick up on lines you use in certain situaitons, so IMO it's best to show to the more observant players that you aren't bet/folding the river with a great enough frequency to warrant them to try a bluff raise on the river.
Information could be a factor as well.
I agree with everything you said here, especially the table image factor. On my worst table i was getting check/raised constantly, and im pretty sure it was because i folded to the first couple of c/r's early in the session and some people noticed it.
