Look at the man page.  pkg reads version from the /bin/sh ELF FreeBSD
version note:
orion% file /bin/ls
/bin/ls: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (FreeBSD), dynamically linked, interpreter /libexec/ld-elf.so.1, for FreeBSD 11.1 (1101506), FreeBSD-style, stripped

Update world past the __FreeBSD_version which is reported for the repository.
