Accepted government job offer but worried about resume mistake before starting

I recently accepted a government job offer and during the onboarding process, I realized I made a mistake on my resume. I had applied months ago and thought my resume was perfect, but when I reviewed it again, I noticed that I incorrectly listed the end date for a teen job I had. Instead of August 2011, I wrote August 2013. This has me freaking out because I’m supposed to start in two weeks and I just sent back my signed offer letter. I checked everything else on my resume and it seems fine, plus it didn’t come up in the background or reference checks. Now I’m unsure if I should say something or just let it go. I’ve seen some comments suggesting that it’s not a big deal, but I can’t help but worry about it.
