So I was searching for another way to install and I happened upon a forum that solved my problem. http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1743064 the user nrothwellir posted a comment I think it was from an apple forum, Re: Mavericks unable to apply software updates which solved my problem, the steps he gave were:
go to terminal and go to /var/folders/zz/
once there list the content (ls -la) and check the ownership for folder i.e zyxvpxvq6csfxvn_n00000s0000068
it should be: drwxr-xr-x+ 3 _softwareupdate _softwareupdate 102 20 Aug 02:17 zyxvpxvq6csfxvn_n00000s0000068
not: drwxr-xr-x+ 4 root wheel 136 14 Oct 15:53 zyxvpxvq6csfxvn_n00000s0000068
Incorrect ownership
