Indeed, it does.  The next node in the Texinfo manual says:

  The parenthetical reference command, address@hidden', is nearly the same as
  address@hidden', but it is best used at the end of a sentence or before a
  closing parenthesis.

The place where you used it is neither of these two.

If I add a comma after the first @ref, like this:

    For further details, see @ref{Exporting,,,org, The Org Manual}, and
  @ref{Publishing,,,org, The Org Manual}.                        ^^^

there's no period in the Info output:

     For further details, see *note Exporting: (org)Exporting, and *note
  Publishing: (org)Publishing.
