We get the phrase from a passuk in parshas Noach, 2qwerty already cited it.
Actually, it’s in Parshas Beraishis (yeah, I know, nit, nit, nit…)
As far as I know, no country in the world has an average life expectancy above 83.
Life expectancy is a weighted average. It’s by no means the maximum. I’m sure you know of people who have lived more than 83 years.
