this was a new feature in JAWS 6.1. Here is the related information from
JAWS help.
New Voice for Table Headers
In Microsoft Word and Excel, JAWS now reads row and column headers for
tables in a different voice. To change this voice, open the Set Options menu
in Configuration
Manager and choose
Voice Aliases.
Select "HeaderVoice" and choose the Modify button.

Could it be the Speech and Sounds Manager and or Voice Aliases in Jaws
configuration manager for XL?
