These numbers are arguably biased high from a median point of view for comparison with tech salaries due to the long training required before anyone can start making money as a doctor. Especially for the high end ones that require fellowships. 4 years of undergrad, 4 years of med school, 2-3 years of residency, maybe a chief resident year, 2-4 years of fellowship. So after 10-15 years of training, doctors get their first big paycheck. Meanwhile, smart high school graduates can start making tech salaries in their early 20s. Median lifetime earnings would perhaps be a more useful metric.
