Hard to describe without a picture but here goes: There should be a very thin metal catch surrounding the cable that sort of bends away from the speedo housing. Depress this catch towards the housing and pull the cable out of the housing.

Bonus points if you can do it one-handed.

While pressing clip with your thumb. Pull on cable housing with your remaining 4 fingers.
Can't describe it any better. Done it that many times.
Basically pulling your hand away from your thumb while pushing your thumb.
