Emmanuel,
Cluster 225 was inaccessible, so no data was collected from that cluster, and it was dropped from the sample. Please refer to page 7 of the final report (http://www.measuredhs.com/pubs/pdf/FR272/FR272.pdf) for additional information.
In the geographic dataset, clusters that have 0,0 as their coordinates are those for which no usable GPS data was collected. They are designated as MIS for "missing" under the SOURCE column of the table. If you are doing a spatial analysis, you should exclude these clusters as their coordinates do not represent their true locations.
Hope this helps.
