The speedometer cable connects between the transmission and the back of the instrument cluster. To get at the back of the instrument cluster, it would be easiest to remove it. You actually can lay under the dash and remove the cable by pinching the connector at the back of the instrument panel and gently pulling it off. If you kink the cable, it will be ruined, but it's fairly strong. Just don't yank on it. At the transmission end, the cable can be unscrewed from the top of the transmission.
