That's precisely what your command is doing.

The data in the PMF curve are dependent upon how the umbrella sampling 
calculations were conducted.  There is no way to manipulate the positions of 
values along the curve, nor should you want to.  The -zprof0 option simply 
allows you to choose a convenient reference point, since free energy is 
calculated as the difference between two states.  Any further manipulation would 
be spurious.
