The value(s) returned by a combo box are the ones which are written in the second (and further) column when you edit the combo box. You only had put values in the first column and these value are just used for display. If you leave the first column empty, the values in the second column are used for display.

So all you have to do is to move the "0" and "1" from the first column to the second one. It sup to you if you want to put values in the first column.
