I've literally just had this problem myself.
The rev counter has self-diagnostics and is telling you that the Speedo isn't working. In the manual it actually describes exactly what you are talking about - revs go to 0k then to 4k then to the actual reading. Its on page 21 of the PDF for the Owners Manual in the Downloads section or page 3-7 if you have a paper copy. But just for completeness, here is a screenshot

The cause is most commonly the lugs get snapped or broken on the speedo drive cog which is nested between the wheel and the nearside fork (left if you are sat on the bike) - basically follow that cable you found
This is relatively cheap to replace if necessary.
However, you may be unlucky enough that its a broken unit which is what I had. I was quoted £100 for a replacement but managed to find someone breaking a Fazer and got the part for £25. In my opinion its worth searching for someone who is breaking a Fazer as it didn't take me long and saves you a lot of money.
The drive cog is item 15 in the diagram at the following site and the complete unit is item 14.

Hope this helps
