Scary??? Paranoid more like it...

Most IP's don't have a lot of geo-location details, VM have more than many but even do geo-locating puts me between 4-8 miles away.. 9 meters is only relevant when the IP belongs to a source they can truly trace..

You're in more danger of people finding you through details you've put on the net yourself than anything else...
