Lower gears in the rear end means that the wheels will turn more than expected for a given gear and engine rpm, so the odometer will read higher than it should.
These days, most odos and speedos are electronic, they count pulses coming from a pickup in the gearbox/tranny. And each set number of pulses represent a certain distance travelled. If you're OK with electronic DIY, you get a part called a pulse divider, and install it between the pickup and the instrument cluster. But you also need to figure out what to set it to, the correction ratio. Use a GPS to figure out how much your speedo is off. Let's say your speedo shows 21 MPH but the GPS shows 20 - then you tell the pulse divider to give out 20 pulses for each 21 received and you're done.

In the 1980 Nissan 280ZX, the lower speedometer cable is located on the driver's side of the passenger compartment, typically near the base of the dashboard. It connects to the speedometer head, which is mounted in the instrument cluster. To access it, you may need to remove the lower dash panel or trim pieces to reach the cable connection.
When using lower gears in a vehicle, the torque increases, which means the engine can provide more power to the wheels for better acceleration and climbing ability.
pull the dash apart. behind the speedometer you will see the cable. it connects to the transmission.
You are pushing against the rotation of the transmission when going into the upper gears. When you pull with it in the lower gears, then it is smooth and jumps into place. Or that's what i would think.
6-speed bike gears work by changing the size of the chainring and the rear sprocket to adjust the resistance and speed of pedaling. Lower gears are easier to pedal but provide less speed, while higher gears are harder to pedal but allow for faster speeds. Cyclists use the gears to match the terrain and their desired speed, shifting to lower gears for uphill climbs and higher gears for flat or downhill sections.

Driving conservatively and on the lower end of gears
you can use the lower gears when you go uphills or downhills with hills of more than 10% grade
Lower gears in the rear end means that the wheels will turn more than expected for a given gear and engine rpm, so the odometer will read higher than it should.
Look at the left side of the front axle. There should be a cable running there between the lower leg of the fork and the hub of the wheel. That's the speedometer cable. The other end should be connected to the back of the speedometer.
For uphill riding, using lower gears on a bicycle is most effective. Lower gears make it easier to pedal and maintain a steady pace while climbing steep inclines.
