Speedometer Quits Working on Cruise Control

When traveling 65 to 70 mph on cruise control, my speedometer quits working. Sometimes it's when I hit the brake to slow down - especially abruptly, sometimes when I speed up, sometimes it just happens. I have to stop and, sometimes, shut off the engine to get the speedometer to work again. It doesn't happen often and hadn't in a while, but it happened very often on a recent long trip. Cruise control continues to work at the set speed when I push "Resume", even though the speedometer is not showing it. It doesn't happen at lower speeds, below about 55 mph. Any suggestions?

Speedometer reading fluctuates

IMHO, I think that the broken cable is what is causing the problems. It "confuses" the programing of the CPU or computer.
