Nope. You're off by a power of 10 because 30 meters is 0.03 km.

So it's 2,040,000 blue whales per hour. ;)

But in terms of miles an hour? About 38,000. Or, as the crow flies, LA to New York in 3 minutes and 51 seconds. That's less time than it takes to listen to the hit Madonna song "4 Minutes."

Whoops, good catch. I definitely thought .03 and then just screwed it up anyway

Unless we're talking the radio edit, of course. Otherwise, four minutes is also less time than 4 Minutes.
