That's a question for your Dr, but more than likely you just happen to have a higher than normal max HR.
Those Max HR charts you find on the interwebs are *completely* useless. I'm 51 and the majority of them indicate that my max should be in low 170's. My threshold HR is 186 and my max is in the low 200's....
