Why RGB value bigger than 1 when convert from spectrum in PBRT-V3

In PBRT-V3, the light has following spectrum in scene file(Note that the scene file is not come from PBRT itself): "spectrum" [400.0 0.0 500.0 8.0 600.0 15.6 700.0 18.4] then it's converted to following RGB in C++: "rgb" [20.7467213 10.8233843…
