It was a trick question and they were referring to the IOTA island off the coast of KL7 known as Revillagigedo. The is no such thing as Revillagigedo Islands. XF4 is called Revillagigedo or Revilla Gigedo and includes four islands.

On the other hand, none of the 4 islands in the Mexican RG group is named Revillagigedo ! Just the group. Tricky !
