I have to think as soon as he went back. His very presence changes time itself, starting with taking the car of the generic 70s thug and travelling to New York. The Sentinal Program's cancellation happens after a large number of other things that are markedly different, including Trask still being alive at that point since, as I now recall, he should have been killed in Paris by Mystique. Wolverine waking up in bed with the 'boss' daughter' is the point of divergence for this new timeline.

And if we take the same approach as we do with comics, it can be assume that all the events in Earth-10005 prior to Wolverine's arrival in 1973 (First Class; the deaths of Angel, Banshee, and Azazeal; Magneto causing JFK's death) still take place in the newly created timeline.
