The resistors are probably correct and your meter is confused by lead resistance.
You can zero out the lead resistance on an analog with the "Zero" control.
On a DMM, such as my Triplett, you put the probes together and press the "Delta" button when it hits a reading of 0.000.
Your DMM is probably similar, check the manual.
If you have an el-cheapo DMM with no ohm-zero function, forget about measuring anything under 10-15 ohms.
