Bullshit. If you knew anything about stepper motor drives you'd realize you can make a mechanical tach react that fast if you want to.

They probably used digital because it "looks cool", typical of so many Japanese "gadgets" they seem to like so much. Digital also goes with the "futuristic" looks of the car.
