Default Stock Rev limit?

Hey dudes, i have a 2000 SS M6 and i would like to know what the stock rev limit is set to. I have hit the limiter before, but i'm too busy looking at the road to pay attention to the tach. I have read it is set to 6250rpm but i am still not sure. Just finished a few drivetrain mods and I have a set of 26" tall et streets i am going to use and want to figure out at what mph i will hit the rev limiter in 4th. Thank you very much in advance.

I'm pretty sure it is right around 6200 ... give or take 50 rpms (6150-6250)

It was set to exactly 6200 rpm in my 2001 SS.

Thanks for the feedback, I hope to be mid to low 12's by the end of the year and i'd hate to have to go to 28" slicks, these 26" only have a couple passes on them.
