Because that's true for ALL speedometers.

Even the limiter isn't 100% accurate, though... minor changes in tire size can have a decent effect on it... metered tests in car magazines show top speeds between 108 and 118, obtained using their own precision equipment.

I don't speed like that on the street anymore...
