Nope - strictly a mechanical / mathematical thing based on transmission gearing, final drive ratio, and tire circumference.
Mechanical problems like slipping clutch or unlocked torque converter vs. locked t.c. could have an influence ... but otherwise it doesn't matter the size of the engine, the torque or the hp ... or its condition - the revs / kph will remain the same so long as those three factors remain the same.
A good analogy is the bicycle ... if the gearing and tires are the same, it doesn't matter who's riding it, the number of rpms per distance will remain the same.
