Did you put the black pieces around the needles? I had the same problem with my rev counter - stuck at 3k revs and would only drop when the ignition was switched off. I had placed the pieces of black tape too close to the needles and they were catching.

you can't get done for having a dodgy speedo if your rev counter still works as that is the most accurate way of detecting speed.
Also, how are the coppers gonna be test your speedo, never known of anyone getting caught with a dodgy speedo as theyd have to physically drive it to tell unless you aint too hot and judging your speed
