It doesn't sound like this king kept his title very long if I may speak from an outsiders perspective

It was about a period of about 3 years during the Akkadian Empire when 4 kings rose and fell. There's some open-endedness to that document,though, as it describes the antediluvian kings as reigning for tens of thousands of years each.

It corresponds chronologically with the decay of the Akkadians and a really bad drought around 2200 BC, though. A couple may have been the listed kings from the fourth dynasty of Uruk or the like, but we can't really know for sure. At least to the extent of my understanding.
