ok, i believe i found out that it's due to the mac-sync feature of the 6708 module 
which uses an interval of 160".

6500#sh mac address-table synchronize statistics

MAC Entry Out-of-band Synchronization Feature Statistics:
---------------------------------------------------------

    Module [4]
    -----------

    Module Status:
Statistics collected from module                    :  4
Number of L2 asics in this module                   :  1

    Global Status:
Status of feature enabled on the switch             :  on
Default activity time                               :  160
Configured current activity time                    :  160


Nevertheless, it would be good to get a warning message on this case.

In SXI3 it works fine

6500#sh mac address-table aging-time
Vlan    Aging Time
----    ----------
Global  300
no vlan age other than global age configured
