It can, but has been proven that there is no Ideal number of wheels in relation to speed.

There was a very Very fast 6 wheel Formula One car that they outlawed because it was too fast.

But realistically because every additional wheel is additional drag and weight it limits fast cars to a maximum of four wheels.

The speed of the car. The speed-o-meter only shows a magnitude ( or a number ) and to tell the velocity of a car it would have to give that speed some direction. Since the speedometer assigns no direction to the car, the number assigned as the speed of the car cannot be the velocity of the car.
