As far as the OP's situation, I would have moved to the right once there were no parked cars. I think that's what the cop was trying to explain. Sharrows don't give you the right to ride down the center of the lane; you still have to ride FRAP.
A sub-standard width lane & door zone? Center or left of the lane is FRAP, sharrow or not.
