The guy that recalibrated my speedo said yes.
Speedometer Question
On a ZXs speedometer face, on the very bottom on the right side it is
printed in very small letters " 60 MPH = 1024 RPM ", wondering is this
the speed of the speedometer cable coming into the speedometer
from the tranny @ 60 MPH.....or what ?

yes. since the speedo is mechanical, it has errors at various rpms. That sounds like someone did a clibration on the old unit. when the speedo cable is rotating the internals at 1024rpm, it displays 60.
Of course, if someone did a rear end swap, the speedo cog needs to be swapped to match the new ratio.
