Cool jumper wire

I was replacing some instrument cluster bulbs and noticed a jumper wire on the cluster. Wire is yellow with a purple stripe, marked FOMOCO, has one male and one female end. Unfortunately I removed it and don't remember where it went. The gauges and light bulbs work fine. Cluster does not have a clock or tach. Wonder what that jumper was for? Wish I could remember what it was connected to. Any ideas? Dumb mistake!

Is there a number on the wire?

The clock wire, blue/black, was installed on all 67-68. The tach was connected inline to the ignition lead, with an existing connector.

A 3000 series is a steering and suspension number. Does the car have a tilt-away column?
