I would have to say that there is an issue with the odometer or someone made a mistake, because its virtually impossible to put 10k on a car in a week without driving in constantly for a week straight.

that happened to our '00 E320 a while back when we had the instrument cluster replaced, although it read 700 miles LESS than when we brought it in
