There are different speeds involved.* An electrical signal travels about 200,000 km/second in a wire - about 2/3 of the so-called "speed of light".

* The drift velocity (average velocity) is typically less than a millimeter per second.

* Individual electrons travel at a significant fraction of the speed of light.
