Here's what I came up with:

The speedometer hub gear ratio is 23:9; For every 23 turns of the front wheel the speedo cable turns 9 times.

The first gear set inside the speedo head has a ratio of 10:1; for every 10 turns of the speedo cable the cross shaft spins 1 time.

The second gear set has a ratio of 16:1, so every 16 turns of the cross shaft turns the longitudinal shaft 1 time.

The last gear set ratio is 14:1; every 14 rotations of the longitudinal shaft turns the 10ths wheel of the odometer 1 time.

If you do the math, the overall ratio between the wheel and odometer is (14*16*10*9)/23, or ~876.5:1.
