I live on a short streat.  The numbers go from 5600 -> 5612.  My  
address is 5612.

Most mapping sites show me at the wrong end of the street.  It looks  
like they assume the block goes from 5600->5699 and interpolate the  
location within that.  I've seen the exact same thing with other  
short streets.
