Estimated and Current Speed mismatch

While checking out a broadband question from my sister, also on PN, I check my details on the portal and found this :-
Phone exchange:
    LEIGH ON SEA
Estimated line speed:
    6Mb (This may vary between 5.5Mb and 8Mb) - Checked on 2011-09-10 18:23:47
Current line speed:
    14 Mb
why is there a mismatch between Estimate Speed and Current speed. ?
Been on ADSL2+ for quite a while and a quick speed test confirms it

Re: Estimated and Current Speed mismatch

The original estimate looks to be for ADSL Max rather than ADSL2+ Smiley

    1.5Mb (Accurate to within +/- 1Mbit) - Checked on 2011-08-18 13:12:40
Current line speed:
    4 Mb
