A member of congress is elected for two years; a senator is elected for six years.
Perhaps the Speaker's term runs concurrent with his or her term as Member of the House of Representatives. That's pretty close. To be specific, a member of the House serves for two years per term, without restriction on the number of terms they may serve. This means, that as long as the Speaker continues to be voted Speaker of the House, and remains a member of the House, their term limit is their life.
Each Congress lasts two years--the length of the term for a member of the House of Representatives. Elections for the House and some Senate seats are held in November of each even-numbered year, and the new Congress begins the following January when the newly elected members take office.
