It may be typical if you are blind. It isn't if you are not (though obviously, you could train for it). Keep also in mind that the human brain has incredible capabilities when it's highly focused. Not having visual input removes a lot of distraction for our reptilian brain always scanning for threats.
In college, I had a friend who is blind and her screen reader speed setting was insane. I couldn't understand most of it despite being someone who watches videos and listens to audiobooks at 2x.
Her typing speed was also amazing. I have never seen anyone type that fast before or since.
