Correct BB torque too much?

I just installed my record 111 mm bottom bracket and torqued both sides to 612 inch/lbs as listed in the Park manual. The spindle seemed tight to me. There was no grinding but it certainly doesn't spin forever like my 1982 SR BB does. Can the correct torque be too much? When I turn the spindle with my fingers it is much tighter than it was before installing.
