with a 26inch tall tire 6000rpm in 3rd(auto)/4th(5/6spd) is 117mph.
if you lost that much top end with the gears you have a larger problem someplace else. most of the time when you switch to a numerically higher gear your mileage will only change slightly if you continue to drive the same way. if you fall in love with your new found aceleration, that is a different story.
