Wondering if there is a label to be found that lists the speed of the drive in comparison to the letters on the speed control dial?

Label, no. There are many 'charts'.

Cool. Any idea where I could find one?

Shopsmith has a few different versions. The most recent one I picked up from them is very nice - 4 pages and laminated. Has about every variation you'd want to know.

Here it is: http://www.shopsmith.com/ownersite/cata ... _chart.htm

And here's another (less expensive) version: http://www.shopsmith.com/ownersite/cata ... dchart.htm

I have both - but with all I have invested in my SS stuff I figure it's worth the 10 bucks or so to have the more complete version.

Then there is the low budget source.
