I think what you got with the settings is obvious.  Not sure why you expected otherwise.

 

If you want to show the Project Base Point (or Survey Point, or Origin Point) as 0,0,0 in DWG, then place a Datum element or symbol with a line to indicate the true north at such point.  Export the view oriented to Project North, using Project internal option.  Open it and move everything from the Datum point to 0,0,0.
