Contiguous is a word that is used normally when objects are spatially adjacent and Continuous is a word that is normally used when events are adjacent in time.
This usage is probably the reason why arrays are "contiguously" allocated and not "continuously" allocated. On the other hand, a function f(t) is "continuous" and not "contiguous".

What is the difference between continuous and uniformly continuous functions?
The way I understand it, a continuos function is said not to be "uniformly continuous" if for a given small difference in "x", the corresponding difference in the function value can be arbitrarily large. For more information, check the article "Uniform continuity" in the Wikipedia, especially the examples.
