It'd be 99.90, it's using 2007's data.

Wow, VCAA were more lenient this year with ENTER scores...

They're not more lenient. The same number of people would have gotten 99.95 as they did last year.
However aggregates needed for a certain enter have certainly lowered from previous years. Two main explanations are a weaker cohort, and spec/languages are scaling up less (I personally think it is awesome you didnt need to do spec/a language to get 99.95 this year)

Collin Li:
Other possibilities include a higher amount of mismatches with regards to high scaled study scores pairing up with each other.

This also explains lower scaling (as matching high scores improve the scaling of subjects).

lacoste:
will vcaa keep it this way for next year?
