I would guess mid 50's probably. I'm sure you will bury the speedometer at 60 on one, but don't take a GPS to it unless you want to be depressed. My 99 500 (which had the same speedometer) would say 59 when the GPS said 52-53. My uncle's 98 454 would say 59 and the GPS said about 51-52. If they have a digital speedometer, it might be different though, I don't know how they read as far as being closer to accurate. Only ridden the ones with the stick guage speedometer.
but for what its worth, I rode my Brother in law's 03 500 and buried the speedometer at 60 coming down a very slight grade.

i dont know.
when i had mine flat out with the 28 inch tires it wasent screeming, but it was reving over 6000 on my mini tac.
i dont remember exactly how much over 6 it was but it reved higher in the lower gears.
a sixth gear would be useless.
because youd hardly ever use it, and when you did it would suck on any hill and you would have to gear down.
where i live there is lots of mountains and almost everywhere you go your eather going up hill or down hill and i hardly ever got it into the higher gears and wheh i did it was on the dirt roads beside the highway or down the back roads.
and that stuff gets borring after awhile.
if you want somthong fast get a brute force.

It would be useless? While you are slugging along at 52 on a wide open road and the engine is popping the rev limiter? I think you are wrong, and 28" tires are going to drag down anything. Also, you wouldn't have to shift down climbing hills, cause unless you are just retarded, you wouldn't be in sixth gear anyway. It would be a good setup, just like 6th gear on a warrior. It felt like an overdrive to me.
I think what you are saying is that it wouldn't be good for you specifically. Because you rarely ride it full throttle or on open roads. Yes, a brute force is fast, but any 600+ quad is fast compared to a 500 AC.
