I've never heard any saying that a particular year had an engine cooling problem. They all have a cooling problem if the system isn't maintained well. One must deep in mind that the gauges in our cars are electric, not a mechanical link. So if your SURE that your gauges are accurate then trust your indications, if not one must question their accuracy.
6250 before shifting and hit 6700 once before? That old and slighty tired or over the hill tired engine won't last long, one day you may find yourself walking back from where you parked it (quiting time) to pick up the pieces!
