That is why I said in my experience I have not seen this. I was trying to say this is not a common thing. I guess it is more likely to happen in a crash involving high speeds (say 160 kmh), involving forces so great it damages internal components of the gauges. In most crashes the forces involved are unlikely to be high enough to do this.
