Oil Sensor Wrong?

Hey guys,

Just changed my OFGF and Oil Cooler Gasket, in the process of doing so I obviously changed my oil. After buttoning everything back up, filling her with 6.9 qts, I warmed it up and read the oil level. It showed the picture below, so I thought "Ok ill add a bit more" since I had a half quart left over. Did so, measured, same result. Added a bit more again (in total engine has about 7.4 qts in it now) and STILL the same slightly lower than optimal measurement.

Is my oil level sensor faulty? And should I drain the half quart out of the engine, or will I be fine running with the additional half quart?
