You can't always drive it at 70 mph, especially at night when trucks are heavy in Florida. Often there are significant delays due to night-time construction or congestion, especially around Ocala and Gainesville and other congested or under-construction areas. His time is plausible, especially if they're driving at or slightly less than the legal speed, taking 15 minute breaks every 2-3 hours, stopping for leisurely meals. Although it doesn't usually take me 10 hours for the trip, it can sometimes take longer. All I'm saying is that his time line is not proof of anything, good or bad.

If there were already running late, stopping for lesiurely dining does not sound like typical behavior.
