Hi,
I have a 2010 MPB and my fans are quite often spinning at 6000rpm. As soon as I start doing something, even not CPU expensive, such as downloading a file, the fans start to spin much faster. I tried everything:

- Cleaned FANs
- Replaces the thermal paste on the CPU/GPU heatsink
- Reinstalled OSX

Is it normal that for those temps, the fans spin at 6000 rpm:
