It depends on the application. What is the car used for?

what does it means that the stall speed is increase on those RPMs

Go to any search engine and type in torque converter and stall speed. You can find what it means.

Generally the assumption is that the engine makes more torque at higher RPMs. So the increase RPM is to match the engine's maximum torque output speed.
