I think the 200 bit refers to the race mileage Steve...

The 2nd lap Guy Martin does on his Honda at 17min 26.32sec translates to an average speed of 129.8 mph

The current lap record is held by John McGuinness with a 17min 12.30sec which is 131.578 mph average

The film and close proximity of the scenery really shows the acceleration of these bikes (0 to 100 mph in 5 seconds!)
