If I'm remembering correctly, the top line is revolutions / min. So you would need to listen for 1 min or a derivative to get the revolutions per minute. Issue is blade count. I believe there's more to this chart, or another chart that lists the number of blades on common ships. In any case, there's supposed to be an accent note on each revolution, like a 3 blade propeller may make a sound similar to chug... chug... CHUG... chug... chug... CHUG. <-- that would be 2 revolutions. With the ship identified or estimated, you find the revs/min on the top line then read the speed in knots inside the table.

I believe there's another chart that helps with identification based on sound, but I also think that there is a sound mod that must be implemented to make all of this work. I don't think it's stock SH3 sounds.

Hope this helps.
