I'd keep the original number; since you have it documented it adds some
value to the car IMO. I don't know if it applies in these instances*,
but I think there is a state law against messing with odometers (used to
be an old trick by shady used car dealers). I think it might even be a
felony.
* For old cars, which have possibly had several speedo 'repairs' or
replacements. I took a long trip when my speedo was in the shop and
used a backup speedo, so my BJ8 actually has 207K miles but the odo only
shows 04000.
