Do cars have more power at higher speed?

Travelling at say, 120mph, must force a lot of air into the engine.

Is this a contributory factor to most cars exceeding the manufacturer top speed, because that's based on theoretical top speed using power at stationary and a drag coefficient calculated in a wind tunnel?
