Club Carlson redemption rate increase??

Hopefully someone will point out an obvious error, and Club Carlson isn't really jacking up the points required for redemptions one day after the Big Night giveaway ends. But here's what I see:

Search Reykjavik - Sept 2 - Sept 5
Radisson Blu 1919 - 66000 pts per night!
Radisson Blu Saga - 57000 pts per night!

Just last week I searched these exact hotels and they came up as the normal category 6 for 50000 and category 5 for 44000 respectively. That's a 32% and 30% increase!

Even weirder, I did a search in Chicago and all the levels turned up normal. The award chart at clubcarlson.com still shows up normal as well. When we're seen this in the past it's often because an IT "glitch" occurs that eventually becomes permanent and got released too soon.

I grabbed a screen shot to prove I'm not insane, but I am really hoping someone can tell me it's not true...
