I faced the exact same issue this last weekend when I tried to update my Xamarin setup. No matter how many times I tried it always failed with the exact messages which you have got. I guess it a bug in the setup file.

Anyways, I was able to resolve the issue by manually installing Monodroid. You will find the downloaded file in your "%temp%" directory. Look for Xamarin folder and install the msi directly and it will go through without any issues.
