[Wien] why the extremely small RMT occurs in the unit cell?

This is a rhombohedral structure !!! The most common problems are:

For Lattice parameters you need to specify the   HEXAGONAL a,a,c
     atomic coordinates you need to put them in   RHOMBOHEDRAL coordinates

You won't find this information in a "single exp. paper", because nobody mixes
the information like that. Read the UG how to convert from H to R coordinates.

Just count the number of atoms in your cell. For instance I see
6 Zn atoms
6 Cl atoms, ... so this can hardly make Zn"3" B7O13 Cl"1"
and similar for B and O
