i don't ride gravel often but just looked at my strava ride for the dirty reiver earlier this year and I hit 50+ a few times, max speed was 60.8.
I don't consider myself a particulary skilled descender on gravel so wouldn't be surprised to learn that more experienced riders were regularly exceeding this too.

Not to get into this again but you probably weren't pedalling, right? Just hanging on for dear life at that point
Edit: probably the flat bits near the Water are pretty fast at a guess?
dirty reiver
After doing a bit of riding round there have to say this sounds amazing. Recommended?

Those speeds are from your GPS device presumably?

When is any one doing 50kph+ on gravel?
