How wrong? There is going to be a little room for error. Ford didn't exactly spend million of dollars developing that little thing. 
Also, make sure it's not in Metric mode. Oops...

Compass Calibration Adjustment
Start the vehicle. NOTE: For optimum calibration, drive to an open, level location away from large metallic objects or structures. Switch off all non-essential electrical accessories (rear window defrost, heater A/C, map lamps, wipers, etc.) and make sure all doors are closed.
Locate the electronic compass/temperature display on the overhead console, press and hold the MODE button until CAL appears in the display, then release the MODE button. NOTE: To exit CAL mode before performing a compass adjustment, turn the ignition switch to the OFF position.
Drive the vehicle slowly (less than 5 km/h [3 mph] ) in complete circles until CAL disappears from the display. NOTE: If the CAL indicator does not turn off after the vehicle has been driven in a circle no more than five times, demagnetize the vehicle and repeat the procedure
