The chain has elongated. It does not really stretch... the contact points wear...and the accumulated wear shows up as ' stretch'.... wear happens much more with a new chain.. the first 10,000 miles will cause noticeably more elongation than from 200,000 to 210,000. Unless of course something like not changing the oil and filter or running low on oil.. or using the wrong oil occurs in ' later life '....
