Stator_Vane,

This is interesting, we don’t operate those models of B737, but I have checked the Brake Cooling chart for the following aircraft, B737-200/B747-400/B777-200.

In these the brake cooling time appears to follow these rules.

Decreasing weight = shorter cooling time.
Increasing Brake On Speed = longer cooling time
Increasing Pressure Altitude = longer cooling time
Increasing OAT = longer cooling time

I have no idea why your charts are different, but it would be worth a quick message to Boeings FLOE department.
