Actually it just occurred to me 86 minutes is a little short for an average 1971/72 movie, all the other films in that issue are in the 92-125 minute range.

It's possible either the studio or the distributor wanted to avoid any negative stigma around a short running time, and gave an 'approximate' running time of 95 minutes to anyone who asked.

We can only speculate.
