You used HTTP status code 200, which is defined as "OK" and is allowed to be cached. It can also wreak havoc on SEO.
You won't be able to affect the clients (or proxies) that have already cached the item until the cache expires.
For future maintenance pages you'll want to use HTTP status code 503 (Service Unavailable).
