Question about ancestry.com?

I know I'm related to some generals ba/bla. My famliy has kept the journals and newspaper clippings, and has some of there stuff.
I was on ancestry.com and I was looking farther back on my dad's/ my tree. I saw this button click to see famous people this person is related too. I was on I need to know if this is for real.
It had a list of all these famous people, that were distant cousins to my ggg grandfather? I need to know if that part is a joke?

mine is right, my 75 yr. old grandfather gave me the list. He already had the basics written down.
This is just on the Schofields's dad side.(haven't even looked at dad's grandmothers.) Ya, I'm distant cousins to 7 first ladies. 3 presidents. 3 signed Declaration Independence.
A women poet,,a women who started the feminist movement during the civil war. a architect and my favorite artist(one of them).
Most of the men on my dad side married European born women or the parents were European (which are hard to trace)
Mom's side my gg grandmother is a Gustin and she is related to the Love's which makes us distant relatives to a looser President. I checked those branches 20times, hoping for an error. I always wondered why he made such bad choices.
