You got the calcs wrong. TheArsonSmith is right. 200 volts x 23 amps x 1.73 = 7958 VA = 7.96 KVA no matter how you cut it.
It is a 7.5HP motor as indicated. 7.5HP = 5.59 KW. All that means is the motor power factor x it's efficiency = 70%. Not great, but not too bad for a motor of that size and that age
