The date picker appears to insert a static date. If you want the current
date, you'll need to insert a Date field. Unfortunately, Alt+Shift+D
shortcut doesn't appear to work here. But you can use Insert | Text | Quick
Parts | Field. Select Date and choose the format you want. If the desired
format isn't listed, pick the closest one you can find and then edit the
field switch to get the desired one.
To reveal the field code (and hide it again when you're done), press Alt+F9.
The syntax for date fields is explained at
http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/DateFields.htm. You may need to F9 to
update the field after editing it.

Instead of selecting a page number building block (which will indeed
replace
the header building block you've just inserted), place your insertion
point
in the header where you want the page number and use Insert | Page Number
|
Current Position.
