I'm guessing that for the MM curve, you are seeing the change in non-bonded
interactions (and not the change in dihedral energy) as you rotate about the
Me-ca bond. (This assumes that your frcmod file is being correctly read,
etc.) If so, look at the a configuration near the top of the MM curve, and
see if you can spot clashes or other interactions that would lead to a
higher energy than QM is predicting.
Others might have more relevant experience or suggestions here....
