Aaaah, I think I understand - I'm guessing you saved the Word file as Filtered HTML and added that into Calibre - Calibre would have created the ZIP from the file that Word wrote because that's what Calibre does with HTML files.

Reading the ZIP with Calibre will do a 'quick convert' to EPUB.

If you are using Word 2007 or later, I suggest you try saving the document as DOCX and adding it to the Book - Kovid has has recently added support for DOCX as an input format. Then convert the DOCX to AZW3.

And as PeterT suggests read the AZW3 with the Kindle for PC/MAC program. Reading Kindle format files with Calibre's Viewer may not give a true indication of what you would see on a Kindle reader because once again it does a 'quick convert' to EPUB.
