I assumed they were using the pitch shortcuts, which in Speedy are pretty nonsensical (i.e., there is no mapping to actual note names, just an octave for each row of the keyboard).
In the days before I got a MIDI keyboard hooked up I remembered the three that do correspond: E, F and G. I was reminded of one of the great advantages of the MIDI keyboard recently when I was composing a piece with lots of chord sequences within various woodwind sections. MIDI entry allows you to put the selected chord on one stave with a single key stroke, and the explode utility can be pointed at that stave and as many as necessary below it to generate parts. Even though the sections were laid out with two instruments on layers 1 and 2 of one stave and another on the stave below, so that some layer changing and moving had to follow, this was the quickest entry method I found. -- Ken Moore
