The natural resting point is well below the stop.

The way I calibrated mine was to drive 60 according to my GPS, then
took note of the speedo reading. At home, I moved the needle to that
speed, and made some marks on the mechanism (the moving part and the
stationary part). I then took off the needle, moved the mechanism until
the marks were lined up, and put the needle on pointing to 61 (better
to read a bit over than under).
