Mach 105 - The Speed Limit of Sound

My intuition says the ideal theoretical* top speed capability of a conventional chemical rocket would be Mach 105.  Any rocket scientists out there with a top speed calculation of your rockets? Rocketman?

*actual physical speed may be a factor of 2 or some multiple less due to practical realities
