That happened to a friend.....he happened to glance down at the odometer exactly when the 6's lined up......................
He got so nervous that he pulled over/jumped out of the car/waited for a catastrophe..........................

I thought my car was possessed when I was doing the restoration but with yours even the trip mileage lines up. If I were you , I wouldn't drive that car another mile. Just have it towed away to be crushed but make sure there is a priest present and praying over you .
