Resistance readings on pickups don't mean anything. It's in no way a indication of the pickups strength or sound.

+1

I got some fender vintage pickups that mesure about 5.1 in the neck and middle and 5.7 in the bridge. They sound cleaner and more defined than the Tex-Mex that are in the 6 range in neck and middle and 7 in the bridge.

These measurments can be helpfull to test cable resistance, or if there are issues with the pickups.
