LM2937 max Tj for SOT-223

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: LM2937

The datasheet for LM2937 gives that the max Tj for sot223 is 85C while for the other packages it is 125C. Is this a fault in the datasheet or is there a reason that it is lower for the sot223? Isn't it the same chip in all Three packages?

It may be interpreted as max ambient but it does say Tj.
