You've used the right technique, so assuming the nipples are definitely 12mm (i.e., you measured them as well to check) then you should be correct, although I'd be tempted to knock 2mm off the total as you'd probably want the spoke to end level with the base of the slot in the nipple head, not the face of the nipple head (if that makes sense).
I've just checked and Edd actually has two listings for 700C / 622 Sputniks in the database - one is the manufacturer's and one seems to be a measurement, and the latter lists the ERD as 606mm. Might be that Rigida's figure of 600 is the nipple seat diameter rather than ERD.
