Start the engine and let it run for aminute or so then check it again.. see if it's still over..
I got a feeling it's deliberate cos these days with the 0W30 oil they using and the 25k interval, they are filling to max so that they will have less complain from owners going back with engine oil check light....
Overfilled oil generally do not do much harm unless it's severly overfilled but u just have the crankshaft dipping into the oil when the level is too high which creates more resistance than required....
For me, i am a believer of changing oil at mid interval which works out to be physically every 10k mileage, i only fill 6L instead of the 6.5L required.
This is also good since 2 bottle of oil can be used 3 times...
