It must be an April fools joke, mostly due to the fact, that Israel is a very small country. The train couldn't even reach its high speed or if, just for a few minutes before it have to break again.
Also, there is a reason the Israeli Railways uses Danish IC3 trainset, because they were build a small country (like Denmark or Israel) in mind. Lower speed but which can be reached faster due and it can break later which leads to a higher average speed.
