The contact lens sits on your eyes whereas specs are at a distance from your eyes...this distance of your specs from your eye is called vertex distance...so they have adjusted the contact lens power for the vertex distance...so nothing to worry...they have done the right thing

It seems to be corrected, adjusted according to the vertex distance as it's a high power.
