According to the performance calculator on the site of (late) Jeroen Cats you'll do about 90 km/h.

For more numbers @ revs:

The red marks on the special speedo seem to equate to 6000rpm in each gear.

Yup!
5750rpm is peak power and so the redlines indicate the change up point or recomended max for each gear, none for 4th as air resistance and gearing usually the limiting factor
