distance inaccuracies

We are seeing an incorrect distance calculation in a very specific instance. 

 

If a search is done for listings within 10 miles of a default address (1 Beacon Street, Boston 02108) the results show one listing in particular with an incorrect distance.  The address : 128A Tremont Street, 5th Floor, Boston, MA 02108 displays as beting  5.37 miles away when in reality it is less than a mile away.

 

I'm uncertain if the issue arises due to the address format on this listing or that there are three '1 Beacon St' within three different zip codes in Boston. (according to google maps, the address at a 02135 zipcode is 5.4 miles away, so perhaps the calculation is based on that address for some reason)

 

Any ideas?
