VDO Speedo and flat battery

Hi Guys,

Does anyone know about this ...

My battery was low and the car wouldn't start (1979 930). It wouldn't even turn over, but the lights came on. When trying to start I noticed the speedo needle went up to 60mph and the rpm went up (I didn't notice what it went to).

I bought a fairly sophisticated battery charger and it shows that the battery had 60% charge. .... was this coincidence? or does the VDO speedo show % battery charge when it can't start ?

Thanks

Todd.
