If you want to increase the mileage, I would think you could attach a power drill to the speedo and rack up some miles.

If you want to save the wear and tear on the speedo, pull out the long pin that holds the small gears on the back of odometer (don't lose the gears!) and manually advance the mileage. I cut the end off the pin with a Dremel then used a dab of JB Weld to hold it in place after reassembly.
