Ultrabeat

Dear Forum!
Out of a genuine interest I would very much appreciate if someone could answer/shed some light on the following.
How "EXACTLY", on a general level, are all of the samples (I, specifically, refer to the samples in Ultrabeat) in the various drum kits really tuned?
For example:
In the Paris House Remix Kit you will find at the bottom a kick/bass drum called Main Kick, which is set to its default C3 (look at OSC 2), and by clicking on the slider we see the frequency = 261.6 Hz according to Logic, which is C (261.6256...Hz).
Now, my FFT analyzer (which is not a Mac brand, but a really good one) will tell me that the fundamental is at approximately 64.26, which is not equal to 65.40639... = C (If I am correct). I have tried both HMT & Equal Tempered tuning, with basically the same result.
