As far as I know, the milage is stored in the odometer display. For example, if you swap a Ford guage cluster (with the odometer display) from a truck with 10,000 miles and put it in a truck with 100,000, the truck with 100,000 miles would now appear to have 10,000. If this was done by the dealer, then they would have to order a guage cluster with the proper milage programed into it.
Maybe some of the light bars in the odometer display are burned out and you're misreading it? Sounds like a wierd problem. Are you really sure you just didn't make mistake reading the odometer?
