gage cluster ? back from just dashes

I have an SR5 gage cluster that was rebuilt from Just Dashes. When I got it back the tach is pegged at past 8,000 rpm. and the fuel is not on E. They tell me this is o.k. I have not intalled it yet and don't want to if this isn't correct. See pics. They also told me that when I plugged it in everything will be right. Is this true.

I know the gas gauge thing is right. It doesn't matter where that is. I don't know as far as the tach though. Doesn't sound right.

See what pics, am I missing something?

When you install the cluster, it will reset back to zero when power is applied. If for some strange reason it doesn't, just call them and explain the situation. Those gauges are resistance based, so it makes sense that in transit they would move around.
