IIRC, Hermione says that there were only seven registered animagi *this
century* (emphasis mine), perhaps Dumbledore was registered last century
(being ~150 years old)?  Although I don't think that Hermione would
conceal the fact that Dumbledore was an animagi, perhaps the list she
looked at only covered this century. Which also leads to the question
(which I'm sure has been asked before), who are the other 6
(registered) animagi?
