That's because you made "archives" inherit from "documents", so the scan
includes the rows in "archives" that have docid=0.

You could do "SELECT docid FROM ONLY documents" if you don't want the
scan to include child tables.  But it's probably a bad idea to use
inheritance for the archives table at all.
