KOP vs. Hands-off test

Been using Steve Hogg's hands-off test to set my saddle fore-aft. After setting it recently, just for the heck of it I checked to see how close it was to KOP. I was shocked to discover my knee was 4 CM -- yes, cm NOT mm -- in front of the pedal axle. Yes, I know these things are just starting points, but . . . Well, could that mean my fore/aft isn't right, after all? (This is for normal road riding, NOT time-trial/triathlon.) Perhaps, the saddle should be further rearward, but lower? (Current height is just about heel-on-pedal.)
