Sounds like your "tach" is off, like they about always are.
Compare its "indication" to a piece of actual test equipment. I'll bet you'll find it's reading between 2 and 3 times what it should. Not at all uncommon unfortunately. That's how these "tach"s fail.
Meaning, besides the wavy pointer trim piece thing in the dash pointing to unexpected numbers, there's not really anything wrong with your car. Which I guess is a good thing.
