if those flash numbers are to be taken at "face value," he was moving at 5,040,000,000,000,000 miles per hour. that's five quadrillian, or FIVE THOUSAND TRILLION, miles per hour. the speed of light is approximately 671,000,000 miles per hour. six hundred seventy-one million. the exaggeration is unbelievable.
Even that that speed is, in fact, LUDICROUS...it still makes sense for Flash. The writer was horribly incorrect with saying "just under the speed of light", but the feat itself makes sense.
Like Draco pointed out, he's had even more impressive feats.
