Yeah, because reading an odometer at a yearly inspection is tremendously difficult. Far more complicated than testing the CO output of an exhaust system.
It's a system trivially easy to cheat and requiring a significant increase in labor expense.

Not to mention my car has not kept an accurate reading on the odometer for about 10 years now.
The instrument panel is damaged (poor solder connections on the back, I need to fix it one day), and 90% of the time the Speedometer doesn't work, and when that happens, it doesn't count miles. I've been at 180k for the past few years.
