Ive always believed that Halo's Timeline was happening years after our own and that when the halos were originally fired it wiped us out. Is this what had happened all along or is Halo's 2552 supposed to be 440 years from right now?

Halo spans a very long time frame, from 100,000 years before present day to several hundred years in the future. The Halo Arrays were originally fired 100 millennia ago by the Forerunners to eradicate the Flood; the Forerunner Librarian indexed mankind for repopulation, ensuring their continuation after the Halo event.
