AFAICS the previous calculation should return 3468. Replacing the division by
512 with DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST would return 3469, and the new calculation would
return 3470.

Still, an ADC would typically have an LSB. Question here is what that LSB is
(in mV), or in other words what the maximim voltage represented by 0x3ff is.
Current assumption is that it is 1.9531 mV or 2000/1024, which admittedly
is odd. It might be 2000/1023 = 1.9550 mV, or it might be 2 mV.
