Traditional IRA contribution

I'm confused about this subject.  When I work through the Turbotax section on the IRA contribution it asks me if I want to "Maximize" my contribution.  If I check that box Turbotax returns me a number higher than the "permitted" contribution of $7500.00.  Why is Turbotax maximizing my contribution at a higher amount?

 

Thanks in Advance,
