So the original story was wrong:
[begin quote]
>Before Canadian vehicles can be sold in the United States, their
>speedometers and odometers must be converted from kilometers to
>miles.
[end quote]

It should have read,
Before Canadian vehicles can be sold in the United States,
their speedometers must display MPH.


There is no requirement to remove km/h and no requirement to change the
odometer from kilometres to miles.


How does Code Title 15 fit with this?

United States Code Title 15
Chapter 6. Sec. 204. 
Metric system authorized. It shall be lawful throughout the United
States of America to employ the weights and measures of the metric
system; and no contract or dealing, or pleading in any court, shall be
deemed invalid or liable to objection because the weights or measures
expressed or referred to therein are weights or measures of the metric
system
