Sounds like an intermittent deffect in the circuit. There are a number of components that can give these symptoms. Firstly i would check the wiring between the dash display and the gearbox speed sensor. Secondly check the gearbox speed sensor for any fault particularly with the drive pinion. These items being ok would tend to indicate a fault with the printed circuit board, or the speedo head itself. This list is by no means comprehensive, but does serve to highlight some of the causes i have found to create these symptoms.

John thanks for a quick reply...Do you know the specs on the speed sensor by any chance? Is there a particular wire or pin on the plug to the dash unit to check the signal ? any help is greatly appreciated...regards Jerry

The guy that had my G60 b4 me had this problem. It turned out to be dodgy earth on the speedo (the bit that goes in to the box) I'll try to get a pic of mine tonight if it helps.
