I don't use Jaws, but I think this should work:

In the Selection Toolbar there are three "time" read-outs.

1) Selection Start: If there is no selection, this shows the cursor position.

2) (Selection) End/Length: Click the "End" radio button to show the
end point of the selection. If there is no selection, the value is the
same as the Selection Start. Clicking the "Length" button shows the
length of the selection instead (the value shows as zero if there is
no selection).

3) Audio Position: Displays the current real time position of playback
or recording.

Use Ctrl + F6 or Ctr + shift + F6 to move between the different
toolbars. When on the Selection Toolbar, tab over to the third time
box.
