Incorrect. It has been factored in, and considering the speeds and masses of the objects orbiting in the Milky Way, nothing comes close to having a relative velocity or mass acceleration anywhere near a significant fraction of the speed of light. Therefore, the effect of time dilation is completely negligible.
