I saw that number and thought it was wrong as well, maybe somebody was combining the ratio with the overdrive to give the effective ratio. 2.75 would normally be standard with the 6 and a 4 speed but there was a 2.42 available in other versions like a 318 auto that maybe they would allow with the special package.
