Rev is right here.
Also remember that hp is proportional to both torque and rpm. That is another way to explain the differing curves. Picture a relatively straight torque curve. Its corresponding hp curve will rise all the way through the rpm range. This is because as the rpm's increase and torque stays relatively constant, the hp curve will begin to rise. HP is related to rpm's also, not just the torque.
