Guess on gears in a '74 318 Duster with 8-1/4 rear

I think you can mark the driveshaft with chalk and count how many times it "goes around" to one turn of the tire or vice versa.
This is friggin bizarre!
Jacked up the rear, car in neutral, rotated right rear wheel 1 full revolution. Driveshaft turned 1-1/8 full rotation.
WTF?
