Indefinite article confusion preceding "one-to-one"








While I was reading a book, I faced the following sentence:




There is a one-to-one correspondence between the two sets of quantities.




So, my question is: why the indefinite article "a" is not "an" in this phrase? The following word starts with a vowel, so shouldn't it be "an"?
