I've driven my car until it shows 1km and then 0km expected distance, and then a few kilometers more.
I take your word for it, but when you are so low on fuel (1 or 2 liters), the calculation becomes meaningless. That's why they usually stop showing it.
But there are cars that do it. Just because you never saw it, doesn't mean it doesn't exist.
A lot of vehicles have 'reserve' fuel, where the meter simply doesn't read the last ~3-5% percent of the fuel tank, so you think you'll be out sooner and choose to visit a gas station before you actually end up stranded.
I've also grown up in snowy mountainous regions and been taught anything under 1/3 of a tank is considered empty. Always keep reserve fuel so you have heat when/if you get stuck in the snow.
