Should I be worried?

From my Amex statement this morning.
They have a scheme whereby you can redeem points. I have 71,105 points and it says somewhere they are redeemable at 100 points = $1. So my shabby and underused arithmetic tells me I have somewhere north of $700 I can redeem. I've never used the points; and I use the card only when I travel. But it seems that I have not yet racked up enough points - where will it all end?
(My underlining.)You'll need more points to redeem gift cards.
The minimum amount of points needed to redeem for a gift card is Infinity points. To earn more, you can check out local shops or online stores by viewing Maps.
