Maybe my games bugged? I'll post ss/screen capture here later if you don't believe me.

Fh5 I haven't played too much so I couldn't speak for that game, but on FH4 I commonly would just haul ass around the map breaking things, or try to drift and get a long chain, so I was farming points without meaning too, half the time I played that game it said 999 in the skill points even after I'd use them on other cars for whatever reason.

Just saying "wrong" and downvoting doesn't help anyone.

idk why I'd lie about something so miniscule/stupid either, that's just how my game/Xbox was, it kept stacking them, that or it got frozen at 999. Either way I'm curious now that you say points don't go over 1k.
