There is a small gear in the odometer that is a common problem. Had the same thing in my 1993 SL2. Went to the junk yard, and two other similar cars had the same gear bad with 90k less milkes than mine (or at least they showed 90k less - who knows how long the odometer wasn't working). Found better quality replacement nylon gear on E-Bay for $20.00. Requires removal of instrument cluster.
You need to find out if you have a speed sensor or a speed-o-cable give these websites a try www.alldatadiy.com and www.autozone.com if all fails stop by your local library and get your hands on a Haynes auto repair manual for your car wish you the best of luck Michigan Man.

This is most likely due to a poor connection from your speedometer cable to your transmission/transaxle. Often when a transmission is replaced this happens. If you have a way to identify your speedometer/transaxle connection. Locate it, if it seems to be loose remove it and aggressively clean w/proper solvent. If that is not the case then you have a faulty instument cluster and it needs to be replaced.
