Android time zone confusion

I'm confused as to why, under Settings -> Date & Time -> Select time zone (uncheck Automatic), Android says Eastern Time is GMT-4:00, when everywhere else, Eastern Time is GMT-5? The reason I ask, is that I'm trying to convert datetime values to the user's current time zone.

Is it from daylight savings time? In November when we no longer "save daylight", we will be GMT-5:00.
