Many enthusiasts have found that over the course of tens of thousands of miles, the difference between manual calculations and the display is about 1 MPG. Since not everyone uses manual calculations -- in fact, very few -- it's safe to say that the database's figures are accurate to less than 1MPG. We can't be sure of the exact error since we don't know who uses which method. My guess is that it's much less than this.
