You need to take the clocks apart and move the needle over that pin to rest on the other side of it, like your speedo is in the pic. No idea why its happened though?

Well this is what I did... was red line shifting, parked it and left it the motor on, went back to the car and found it turned off with key still in ingintion mode and rev counter was as in the pic..

Don't know if the rev counter was like that when i left the car :S
