A speedometer that far out is effectively useless, and if I bought a vehicle like that I'd take it up with the dealer.
So yes, Seymour might not have even been speeding.
This is one of my pet peeves; this is not the 1950's; we can make speedometers accurate to within 3%....this margin would account for all the vagaries of tire pressure etc.
Our newest car; pleasantly has a very accurate speedo...
Modern vehicles have GPS calibrated speedometers, and are often dead on. But for an electronic speedo, there's no excuse for more than a few percent.
