    I think he means theoretically. even if you dont have a speedlimit your top speed is ultimately governed by gearing. if you're in 5th and redlining it you can't go any faster than that

    Wind resistance will play the biggest part. Unfortunately, even if he was in 5th gear, just at the point of peak torque and a bit below peak power, the car still won't accelerate more if the power being produced is not sufficient to overcome wind resistance.
