I think Mike gave an excellent explanation. The following comes from the DXCC Rules on the ARRL website:
*c) CW*: Contacts must be made using CW since January 1, 1975. Confirmations for cross-mode contacts for this award must be dated September 30, 1981, or earlier. CW contacts dated December 31, 1974, or before, are credited as Mixed mode.
