Yeah... with the right gear and final drive ratios, I can't see how you couldn't squeeze that sort of speed out of a P6. It's remarkably slippery compared to what you'd think (mostly in the shape of the windscreen and its relationship to the A-pillars and roof), and a lot lot lighter than a lot of people think.
I've spoken to a few people (mainly at the NEC) who have banged on about how heavy they were: "Big old heavy cars these though, weren't they? Always used to lock up under hard braking." Nobody ever seemed to cotton on that only happens because it's got too much braking force and there ain't enough weight over the rubber!
