MK2 trip gauge running faster than mileage

I swapped my Speedo over into a working instrument panel the other day before I got the polo properly on the road. It was one with a trip metre below the normal mileage (though I now can't press the reset button because the dash I put it into doesn't have the hole :( I'm treating it as mileage since ownership).

 

The problem is now I'm driving her, the trip is at like 1000 when I've only gone a couple hundred on the normal mileage. Is there a reasonable explanation for this, did I knock something during assembly? Or is trip in KM?

    Simple. The right most digit is tenths of a mile. It's normally a slightly different colour as there's no decimal point on a mechanical meter display..

    Thought there'd atleast be a comment about your performance being miles ahead of everyone else before it got resolved
