I think they aren't wrong.

The UTC offset is listed as -6.

If you're expecting the times to be Chicago local times then they would be 
an hour different and there would be a -5 UTC offset.

Most likely this is caused by an outdated Java that isn't aware of the US 
federal Energy Policy Act of 2005 (I've encountered at least one such this 
week) and believes that US daylight savings time ended last week.

However, as of tomorrow, all will be rectified as Chicago really will be 
using UTC-6.
