To get the distance in meters you can use the geography type instead.

something like:

SELECT *
 FROM zip_polygon
 WHERE ST_DWithin(geom::geography, ST_GeogFromText('4326;POINT(13.171982
52.52646)'), 2);

But to get it working fast you should store in geograpgy type and build
your spatial index n that.
