It was presumably the upper threshold before air conditioning came on.

Explanation for those wondering why this needed explanation: Most thermostats set the lower threshold before heating comes on, so turning it up would use more energy.

thanks to you and everyone for the explanation - I haven't lived in the U.S for 20+ years now so I forgot all about air conditioning.
