calories burned question (HRM)

I just did Turbo Jam Cardio Party 3. I normally burn 500 calories in the 51ish minutes of the video. My HR is usually in zone for at least 45 of those minutes. Today, my HR was in zone for 33 minutes, and I burned 516 calories (more than usual). Anyone know of an explanation for this? Don't get me wrong...I'll take it, but it seems kind of odd.

Today, your heart-rate was above the "zone" for more time than usual, thus burning more calories.0

Duh...that makes sense. My average was in the 150s, and my high is supposed 160 something. My usual average is lower.0
