His groundspeeds are indicative of fluctuating winds from the front, so to be in a fully established stall at 90 knots ground speed, wings level, he'd need to have had a substantial tail wind, which I don't believe he had.
Except what happens to your stall speed when you have ice under your wing?

Agreed though, hard to know the wind without being there which makes theorising difficult,
