Section 2 says: 

In particular, for IPv6 address
   types required to have 64-bit interface identifiers in EUI-64 format,
   the universal/local bit MUST be set to 0 (local)

It should say:

In particular, for IPv6 address
   types required to have 64-bit interface identifiers in EUI-64 format,
   the universal/local bit MUST be set to 1 (local)

Notes:

local 1 not 0 (https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc4291#section-2.6)
--VERIFIER NOTES--
The section 4 also repeats that the value is 0, notably to make a difference with other IPv6 address types (cfr section 2).
