I'm sure he is doing it in 5th. 6th gear is too tall of a gear to run top speeds, its main purpose is for fuel economy. You would have to have massive torque to push top speed in that gear, its 42mph per 1000rpm in 6th I believe. If you could do top speed in 6th, you could theoretically reach 300mph!
