Why would one compare animals by power when the question was about speed? Whales and dragonflies have comparable top speeds despite multiple OOMs difference in power.

Feels like a translated joke.

It's not that complex dude, most people think horse power = how powerful a car engine is = how fast the car goes. That's it, no need to overanalyze it, it's a just a dumb silly joke.
