Default Sc300 Tach swap?

Hey I am about to buy a sc300 5 spd with a 2jzgte. I did a carfax report on it and everything looked cool until the last owner. It said it had 105000 miles on it 2005 then in 2006 it read 156k mile which was a huge leap since all the other owners barley drove it. Then 2 days later it said it had 214k miles on it! And the tach reads 114k on the car. And the car is a factory 5spd so there was no need to swap tach. Any way I can tell it's been swapped?

Ok the tach on the Scs goes bad all the time, non working back lighting or burned up needles.
