If you still have the 131k speedo then just swap it into the new cluster

even easier method is to remove the speedo from the clocks and look down at the top where the numbers are. note the row of white cogs and the pegs on the side of the numbers they locate into.

simply lever the white cog away from the speedo digit you want to move, then push the speedo digit the opposite way and pull/push it round 1 click at a time till you get the milage you want. dead easy and no messing about with a drill for ages
