Why do I have 2 points of my NJ drivers license if I pleased guilty to 0 points in PA

More details to this question:
I have a drivers license in NJ, and got pulled over in PA for speeding. I pleaded down to 5 MPH speeding ticket in PA. I paid the fine, and they told me I would get 0 points. According to this: http://www.state.nj.us/mvc/Violations/penalties_otherStates.htm It appears I get 2 points, regardless of the moving violation and points. If I were to get pulled over for a 1 point violation in another state, then NJ instantly can nab me for 3? How is this legal? And is there any way to fight this?
