screen the speed reading at 250 mph
I presume it is the true airspeed.
If yes, it is normal.
Restrictions ( due to metal fatigue, stresses etc...) on the landing gear are hedged based on the Indicated Airspeed.
True airspeed may vary largely from what it is shown on the indicated airspeed indicator. ( due to high altitude, wind etc...)
Correction: It tends indeed to be the ground speed. Words misplacement.
[Sub all TAS with ground speed].
