That $200MM figure came from MocoSpace, a "potential" buyer, not from MySpace. But I don't think MocoSpace's offer was more than an attempt to grab attention for itself, which means it was to their benefit to quote a large number.

From https://allthingsd.com/20110210/myspace-is-certainly-for-sal... , "... the look-at-me attempt to suck up some attention from the media was riveting and appalling at the same time."

If I put out a press release saying I'd like to buy Facebook for a trillion dollars -- you know, to impress a girl -- it wouldn't be fair to turn that into a claim that Facebook now thinks it's worth a trillion dollars.
