Jack was expressing a sort of surprise that the Hunter World seemingly just uses the same calendar we do, with months like May and June and stuff. Looking at the calendar on Wing's wall, we do see that they have a seven-day week Sunday–Saturday, and that the 6th month has 30 days in it. But since the Japanese names for months are literally just "Month 1", "Month 2", etc, we don't necessarily know that they have the "same" months as we do, to the extent that's a meaningful concept, and they might not have the same number of months even.
My personal theory, which I'm sure we'll see confirmed soon, is that they use a lunilunisolar calendar – the months are based on the cycles of the first moon, with days added and removed to realign with the cycles of the sun and the second moon. We don't see the second moon in the sky because it was destroyed, but the calendar has stayed the same. There's a total of 25 months, numbered from -12 to 12, and all the leap days and antileap days are in month 0. These days also adjust the flow of the week – antileap days skip over whatever day of the week they would've been on, and leap days add an extra day into the week, called Nullsday or 無曜日 in Japanese. It all makes perfect sense once you understand it, trust me.
