My math fu is not good, but am I understanding this correctly: In Z/Z, every integers "maps" to 0, so 2+2=5 is equivalent to 0+0=0, so 2+2=5 is true in that system...?

yes, this is what i understood too, the definition of the set states that every element is equivalent (not equal though) to the number itself modulo 1. so every element from Z is actually equivalent to 0. and, 2+2 = 4 = 0+0 = 5 = 0
