Was the car only doing 20 mph......? Was the odometer still clicking round ok? Probably just a sticking needle..... But of course could be the drive from the gearbox is slipping.

Surely if the odometer works the cable must be fine?

Since it seems to be wildly inaccurate anyway, I would just look for one with a more appropriate tpm.......
