Baby head circumference jumping centiles- what does it mean?

When he was born, DS's head was on the 50th centile. Subsequent measurements have moved from the 50th to the 75th, two 91sts and currently 98th (at three months). The GP has referred us to a paediatric clinic but won't tell me why - can any medics or parents who've experienced this tell me what head circumference jumping centiles can mean and how worried I should be? The GP keeps saying 'don't worry, I'm sure it will be fine', but I'm not finding that reassuring!

Many thanks for any advice!
