Because it was time to move on and the channel airing MacGyver only wanted 13 to 14 episodes.

I think the poison that was used was applied to this knife, passed to the mutton when it was cut and then activated by the wine. - MacGyver.
Sometimes you just have to die a little inside to be reborn and rise again as a stronger and wiser version of you.

It may have been to do with football seasons or special events they had scheduled for the Monday night time slot, or may have been ratings related.

Either way I think the cast and crew where pretty happy to be finishing. I remember hearing quotes like "we've taken the character as far as it can go" and there was a fairly obvious lack of enthusiasm in the final seasons episodes.
