I secon negaatio on this one. Top tube ain't as short as people might think.
Most frames are measured c-t though these days. Seat tube angle also counts when it comes to top tube length... However, track bikes often have shorter top tubes for a shorter wheelbase and therefore are meant to be ridden with longer stems.
The standover of the 54 is about 78cm with a 22c tire on this frame which also might help choosing the frame size.
