As you can see id 2 has coord: 16,16, but if you look on the map, it is shown in location (16,0)

all of the other sites aren't working. I'm not sure if the last column shifts it around 1, or if it being in the top right right corner causes it to post the site wrong, but there is something amiss here. It's probably not extremely easy to reproduce though.
Steps To ReproduceGen a world, look for a site that is on the map 16,0 and the xml will have the site location at 16,16 (perhaps?)
Additional InformationI used a mod to gen this world, so it's possible that they broke something and this wouldn't happen in a vanilla, but it might be worth investigating regardless.

Are you sure you're reading it correctly? Coordinate 16,0 cannot possibly have a cave, as it's surrounded entirely by mountains and is thus inaccessible via [T]ravel; similarly, coordinate 0,16 is in the middle of the ocean.

Coordinate 16,16 would put the cave at the bottom-right corner of the map, though it's hidden (due to worldgen parms) and thus isn't visible on the screenshot (if you go in Adventurer mode, you should find it there).

I assumed 16,0 was a cave because it had the same mark as a the cave (id:1) on (6,0). BUT could that actually be a volcano, that just HAPPENS to have a cave (not visible) on the same tile?

6,0 is indeed a volcano, but there's also a cave hidden there as well (would show up as a dark-gray • when you approach it in Adventurer mode). 16,0 is just a mountain peak.

Ah, okay. I didn't realize caves weren't shown on the map, and those two matching tripped me up.

Okay, this isn't a bug then. It can be closed.

Sorry! :)
