RAPT Pill gravity reading

RAPT Pill gravity reading

Hey, I recently got a RAPT Pill and was excited to finally use it. I brewed some beer this sunday, measured it at 1.048, pitched the yeast and added the RAPT Pill.
To my surprise, the pill showed 1.0645 OG gravity, which sounds like a great difference.
I calibrated it using a single point calibration in room temperature water. I know two point calibration would've been better, but I didn't think it would make this much of a difference.
Do you think two point calibration would fix this issue?

Also, I've usually let the beer in the fermentor for 2 weeks before bottling/kegging.
I read on here that people use the RAPT Pill to detect when fermentation has died down so they know when they can bottle/keg. Looking at my chart it looks like fermentation was done yesterday, so basically 2 days of active fermentation.
Is that possible? Is it already OK to bottle/keg?
It's a 45L batch if that is of any help, and i pitched 2 packets of yeast.

Thanks in advance for the advice.

I had to break open my bedroom door because the locking mechanism got stuck. The door got damaged on the other side where the metal thing into which the lock slides when locked - this metal thing got kicked out of the frame and damaged the frame in the process.
I'd like to patch it up so the damage isn't as noticeable. Replacing the frame would probably be costly in regards to the damage so i'd rather just patch it up as best as possible.

Any advice is very welcome, thanks in advance!
