I installed the files available from Apple’s developer site in the dmg file named: java_for_os_x_2013005_dp__11m4609.dmg . It was the newest Java installer Apple had listed on developer.apple.com’s developer member site. That file you linked is newer (2013–005 vs 2014-001), so I’ll install it. Regardless, all of the packages I installed seemed happy with the Oracle install I did.
