I said 7600rpm because BMW said slightly ABOVE 7500rpm and the red marking seems to begin at 7500. On my N53 engined F10 the red markings begin at 7000rpm, but redline is 7200rpm.

And BMW has said that torque is well above 500Nm/396lb.ft, so that's why it's safe to assume a higher torque than that... And as HP and torque is related some have also extrapolated what sort of HP goes with that torque

That's why different numbers are being thrown around here
