It was common practice with some manufacturers to use 1000 or 1200 volt rated caps in lower voltage applications because the device had less internal leakage. That's not an issue with modern caps.
Another application was across the incoming AC line. A 630 v DC cap can work there but modern rote is to use the X-Y type AC-rated capacitors.
The plate of the audio output is another location that occasionally needs more than a 630 vdc rating because of the audio spikes and AC component.
