These are the true rpms at 65 if the tire size is correct.

If Quadratech chart is not the same they are wrong.

they use a 1.1 final drive, which wont be right with anything with OD or a 5th gear.

there chart is setup to work with 4speed manuals or 3 speed autos, and they just use a generic 1.1 as there guideline

You are wrong!! Get over it. I've been doing this for a couple of years and I know how to do simple math. None of those charts are for your transmission, so none of those charts will have the right gear ratio for your overdrive. Also if your tires are say 37.5 not the advertised 38 that will make a difference.

Bull, you are wrong so get over it! No you are running 65 at about 1850rpms. If you can't see the line for the 2000 mark get some glasses.
