Many cars must be going close to 100 and trucks easily near 80. You're from NYC. How many people drive 70 on the 65mph Rt 95 (aka NJ Tpke)? Probably more than on the FL TPKE but not a lot. I'm sure there are those who do lock in at +5MPH but not a whole lot. Speed limits on FL Tpke or US75 are rarely enforced it seems. NOT SAYING IT'S RIGHT, just that it happens quite often.
My recent experience is on I 81 in Va and Tn and that is what I have seen. Been awhile since I have driven on 95 or turnpike in Florida.
