This was a common problem on that series.
The odometer is driven by a little electric motor. Simplest is to replace the odometer, itself. The miles won't be correct, and if and when you get rid of the vehicle you'll have to sell it TMU. (True Miles Unknown). But, on that old a pickup the miles probably won't matter, anyway.
Thinking about it, though, I don't think the gear breaks, if I recall wear in the shafts and bearings causes the little gears to jump teeth.
Years ago, I bought an '89 pickup on an auction. The odometer showed 259,000 miles. When I drove it home from the auction, I found out the odometer was stuck on 259,000. I replaced the odometer with one that showed around 80,000. I rebuilt the body and used it for several years.
I finally sold it on another auction, and had the auctioneer announce that I had no idea of how many miles the pickup actually had on it, and even though the odometer read 97,000 it was actually more like 300,000. I still made money on it.
In fact, I ran across a deal on a 2000 Chevy that I couldn't pass up. The bottom line was, I upgraded 11 years for $1700.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
