When THE "24" hours actually occurs, it means that there exists a catastropic crisis of epic proportions that the Counter Terrorist Unit must asses, gather intel, rally the troops, and basically CALL Jack BAUR! in order to stop it in that 24 hour time frame. Each season is just one day but after that day has occured it goes back to fake time, where the writers can do whatever they want with the time frame. Sometimes it is 2 years, sometimes 1 year, I believe 3 years is the longest b/w "catastrophic events" desribed above.
I hope that explains it, Fluid.
