Why two separate routers?

You don't need static routes on m0n0wall in this setup.  That's at
least one of your problems.

If I understand what you're saying, you want to use m0n0wall to route
between these two subnets, and leave the two internet routers in
place?  Unless you have some really good reason to extremely over
complicate the network like this, I'd yank both routers and use one
m0n0wall as the router between subnets and to the internet.
