I may be mistaken, but my impression is that any state can set any limit 
it wants, as long as it is at or below the federally mandated limit.  I 
believe also that any state could as things stand now put their speed 
limit higher, but that the federal government responds by pulling their 
highway funding (which is a bad thing).
