The default (fallback) servers are 0.pool.ntp.org, 1.pool.ntp.org, 2.pool.ntp.org, 3.pool.ntp.org, and will be used if there is no other timeserver configured in your network.
If your network is specifying it's own timeserver via DHCP then you won't be using these default timeservers.
However if your network timeserver is inaccurate then you need to configure static timeservers (as you have done) in order to override your DHCP server.
Obviously the best option is to fix your DHCP server so that it uses an accurate timeserver, or no timeserver at all leaving your devices to use sane defaults.
