What may happen is that the binding cable will cause cycles of fast and
slow revs, as the cable twists enough to overcome whatever is binding it.
While this may cause the needle to bounce, if the frequency is correct it
can result it a higher reading, due to the speedos tendency to "average"
out the bounces. If you think about it, that is how a speedometer works,
the spinning cable causes pulses on the needle that are counter-acted by
a spring pulling the needle back.
