I've always been under the conviction that these two words have two syllables. Here's my defense:
world = wurr-uhld
wheel = wee-uhl
Two syllables. QED
The natural follow-up question is, why are dictionaries so retarded? They haven't fixed this error in ages.

"All great works are prepared in the desert, including the redemption of the world. The precursors, the followers, the Master Himself, all obeyed or have to obey one and the same law. Prophets, apostles, preachers, martyrs, pioneers of knowledge, inspired artists in every art, ordinary men and the Man-God, all pay tribute to loneliness, to the life of silence, to the night." - A. G. Sertillanges
