139A = 1000w / 7.2v
Now, let's upgrade that to a 10 cell pack:
83A = 1000w / 12v
See? The amps went down, not up. If the amps stay the same when the voltage went up, that would mean the motor somehow make more power...which can't happen, because the motor is unchanged.
What this vendor is asserting with their numbers is that the same motor can do more work with more voltage. That makes no sense.

I'm sorry, but you are mistaken. Period. I don't know where to start. You have the whole concept backwards.
The formulas are correct but you are applying them in reverse.
Somebody here has to see this besides me....?
