Because they're designed that way. A tuning fork can be, well, "tuned" to have any desired frequency.
If these are for tuning Musical Instruments, they sound like very old Tuning Forks. The "middle C = 256 Hz" scale was in limited use at one time, but by modern standards (where the A above middle C is tuned to 440 Hz, or in some cases even higher) is a bit on the low side. Tuning your instrument to C=256Hz will make it sound "flat".

Why is c the most important key on the piano?
The vibrational speed of middle c (256 hz) in the well tempered and equal tempered tuning allows for the most aurally pleasing notes, so it is the key around which the pitches of all the other keys are determined.
If a string vibrates at the fundamental frequency of 528Hz and also produces an overtone with a frequency of 1056Hz this overtone is the A 1st harmonic B 2nd harmonic C 3rd harmonic D 4th harmonic?
Fundamental frequency = 1st harmonic = 256 Hz 2nd harmonic = 1st overtone = 512 Hz 3rd harmonic = 2nd overtone = 768 Hz. Look at the link: "Calculations of Harmonics from Fundamental Frequency".
