Javascript date looks wrong when changing the month

My eyes must be deceiving me, but when I call setMonth(1) shouldn't the date of that date object be February? (Today is March 30, 2016)

x = new Date();
y = new Date();
x.setMonth(1);

document.write(x.toString() + '<br>' + y.toString());

There is no February 30, 2016

So therefore the date processor correctly changes the date to March 1, 2016
