e39_touring is on a distinguished road
US spec BMW's are coded from the factory with a default 3mph optimistic speedometer. It's 3mph across the board and not a percentage factor. Any additional error is due to variations in tire rolling radius.

It's very easy to change or eliminate the speedo fudge factor using ncs expert. Iirc, you can do up to + or- 6mph/10kph.
