Well, whilst I'm not saying you're wrong, I can't say I instantly agree 100% with your statement.
Well maintained engine's can and have surpassed that mileage with little deviation from standard spec figures for compression, economy and bearing wear. While I can only hope that my engine has led such a cherished life, the numbers on the dash can't really accurately be used to simply write off it's condition, IMO.
