Yes, this is most likely a thermostat problem.
As a basic explanation, the thermostat is the device which separates the hot coolant in the engine block from the cool coolant in your radiator. If it gets stuck closed, your radiator coolant will remain at near room temperature, while the coolant in your block (which is what your gauge reads) does not circulate and will skyrocket in temperature.
Testimonial: "Very helpful. Discription makes sense/logical explanation of symptoms."
If your engine is overheating, Try this procedure:
SOURCE: How do I bleed a 2002 Mazda Millennia coolant system
There is a spicket on the bottom left or bottom right of the radiator on some vehicles not sure about the millenia but you shouldn't have to bleed your coolest system. If you're looking to flush the radiator let the engine cool off, get a container big enough to catch all of the coolant about 2 or 3 gallons (for proper disposal) disconnect bottom radiator hose and drain into your container, you can flush with water through reservoir opening or heater core hoses (if you feel you have enough experience to do so through heater core) and to fill, reconnect bottom hose (I use 50-50 but I suggest you use what's recommended in your area) there is a cap that says something like do not remove without checking owners manual that looks like a smaller radiator cap on the left side front of your engine connected to a radiator hose. Remove this cap with engine cold and fill to top of opening, start the engine and continue to add coolest untill full and with engine running, replace cap. Fill your reservoir and you should be good to go.
