Absolutely correct - that was a weird way to label the connections! "Start of coil" ends of windings (marked with star) should go together. I confess that I was looking at the lettering and not the "star" marks - and the lettering does not seem to follow a logical convention. Nothing would have blown up my way - but nothing would have gone round either...

Well spotted!
