my dumb 1999 odometer reading question

does the odometer on a 99 500 sportsman read tenths of miles? i just picked one up and it reads 005110M ??? do i have 5110 miles or 510?? its hard to read because the glow in the dark crap flaked off behind the allready blury speedo glass...im sure i will figure this out soon enough, however i just replaced the cam in it and havent had a chance to put any kind of miles on yet...thanks!

well, i answered my own question...i had to pull the speedo assembly out and clean the glow in the dark crap out of from behind the lens so that i can read the digital cluster...and the good word is it has 511 miles....on the other hand it has over 620 hours.. but it all makes sense seeing as i just replaced the cam and exhaust rocker in it...it would run great with the bad cam but you couldnt get more than 5-10mph out of it without it sputtering and backfiring...not only that but the red plastics were severely faded and sombody painted them at one point...kinda looks like she spent most of her life putting around outside in the elements and in the sun...aside from the ugly plastic its in great shape....going to be a nice ride once i get her a clean and shiny...check it out http://youtu.be/iuVq5D5hPzM
