I think its there more for consistency - besides, there may be other bikes that the gearing also represents which have the extra power to achieve such a figure?
Also, if you change the gearing enough, the 12,500 RPM in 6th can come down to below Yamaha's quoted top speed for the bike - not a useless figure then
