Yes, E 08 97 means that you can still recalibrate 8 times before needing to purchase a new cluster to recal again (8 is maximum, so it has never been recal'd) 972CAL is the conversion factor (97.2 minus the decimal point) that the computer uses based on a signal from a sensor on the ring gear (rear axle). 972 is the stock conversion factor for the stock 235x75x15 tires. If you have much smaller or larger tires, that number needs to be changed for your speedo to read correctly.
What bothers me is that you should not have been able to get to that code without the PSOM connector wire being grounded. That wire is located under the glove box just about center.
You can get a full explaination of how to recal by doing a search on "speedo recal" here on this board. In several of the posts, that info is there.
Hope this helps
