Gusts to 200mph is about as high as they go.
The fastest winds recorded in America occurred during tornadoes and hurricanes. The fastest wind speed ever recorded in the United States was during a tornado in Moore, Oklahoma, with speeds reaching 302 mph (484 km/h) in 1999. In terms of hurricanes, Hurricane Patricia in 2015 had the highest wind speed recorded in the Western Hemisphere at 215 mph (346 km/h).
Hurricanes are primarily driven by easterly winds called trade winds near the equator and westerly winds known as the westerlies in higher latitudes. These winds help steer hurricanes across the Atlantic Ocean.
Hurricanes cover a larger area than tornadoes. Both hurricanes and tornadoes can be deadly, although hurricanes are more likely to cause widespread destruction due to their larger size and duration. Both hurricanes and tornadoes have strong winds, but hurricanes typically have more sustained, powerful winds over a larger region.

The statement "Hurricanes cover a larger area than tornadoes" is true. "Hurricanes have strong winds" is also true unless there is a second part to it. Both hurricanes and tornadoes kill people.
the fastest winds recorded in a hurricane were 190 mph in Hurricane Camille.

No, tornadoes are not the fastest wind on Earth. The fastest winds on Earth are found in weather phenomena such as jet streams and hurricanes. Tornadoes can have extremely high wind speeds, but they are localized and short-lived compared to other weather events.
Tropical cyclones, including hurricanes, typhoons, and cyclones, are known to produce the highest winds on Earth. These storms can reach wind speeds exceeding 150 mph (240 km/h) and can cause significant damage due to their strong winds and heavy rainfall.
Hurricanes are primarily driven by easterly winds called trade winds near the equator and westerly winds known as the westerlies in higher latitudes. These winds help steer hurricanes across the Atlantic Ocean.
Heavy winds like hurricanes, tornadoes, and tropical winds
Because of their winds.
Sustained winds in a hurricane are at least 74 mph. Some hurricanes have had winds as high as 190 mph.
There is actually a good deal of overlap. The winds of most hurricanes and tornadoes and hurricanes fall into the same range. However, the strongest tornadoes have faster winds than the strongest hurricanes.

In most cases the wind speeds fall into the same range. However, it is not uncommon for tornadoes to produce winds in excess of 150 mph, which are rarely attained by hurricanes. The most violent tornadoes do produce stronger winds than even the most intense hurricanes.
