I suspect that they meant (and perhaps mis-stated) that the tumblers were to be set to zeros, not the the combination had to be reset.

Which reminds me of a security issue I came across recently although not tech related. I rented a condo in New Orleans for our vacation. The person renting to me gave me the code for a key safe like realtors use. When I got there I saw two of them. I looked at one and saw that it was already set for the code I was given but it wouldn't open. I then tried the other one and it worked.

The lesson - if you see two boxes like this make a note of the settings on them and try each on the other.
