Being off by a few tenths isn't surprising at all. How wide or short you take turns, what lanes you use, how much air pressure is in your tires, if you go around people, the exact spot you start and stop, how straight you drive in your lanes, etc., etc. All these things will have small effects on the total mileage of a trip compared to the map estimate.

I wouldn't worry about it too much.
