If the motor is supposed to be used on a 6V car, then it is not unreasonable -- 100*W's is about right -- still high but not too bad. 400W is INSANE in that size motor.

*I don't have the spec open right now, I am going by the theoretical idea that peak power grows like the square of the voltage. So, 1/2 the volts implies 1/4 the peak power.
