I have 1 box awarded to my Motor Officer for the "extra speed" thing, might that be causing this? Like how the torpedo special passive abilities aren't counted in the TDC, perhaps the motor officers aren't counted into the speed setting? They just add on?

bingo.
The motor officers passive abilities screw up setting an exact speed, much like the torpedo officer's passive abilities screwing up the TDC.
If you have the motor officer max'd out you have to actually click a few knots less than you want to get th correct speed, as his ability adds a certain percentage to the speed you selected. If you choose 8 knots it adds +25% so you get 10 knots. If you choose 12 knots.. it adds +25% so you get 15knots. etc. etc.
