Robert's answer is spot on. Modeller only deals with structural information from templates, so it reads the PDB sequence from the ATOM/HETATM records, not SEQRES, and that's the sequence that needs to match your alignment file.
You may also find FAQ #17 useful here: http://salilab.org/modeller/FAQ.html#17 It also includes a Modeller script to extract the sequence from a PDB file.
