A320 Vle Vmo/mmo Relation

HI everybody

In our FCOM 3 operating limitations/gear down it states that VLE( max speed with the landing gear extended ) is 280 kias/0.67
While in FCOM 2.04 special operations/flight with landing gear down...it states under PROCEDURES/PREFLIGHT that VMO/MMO with the landing gear down and doors closed is 235kts/M 0.60
The question is how can a VLE value exceed VMO/MMO which may not be exceeded deliberately in any regime of flight for the same condition which in this case is a flight with the landing gear down and doors closed?
Thanks in advance for all inputs
