Default over heat while doing smog check

Hi there,

I bough my 02 accord 4cly automatic to a smog check station to get the pass certificate, and lucky that I passed it. After doing the test for around 15'-20', I got into my car and noticed that the temperature gauge is 95% to the top. I dont know what wrong with it, fans are on when AC on, coolant changed 5k mile ago. Any suggestions??? Thank you
