Just found this, Bob:
"During one of the briefings, the NTSB said that the crew had selected 114 kts for Vref15 then described the ref speed increase switch (it was turned on) which added 20 kts and resulted in the airspeed bug setting of 134 kts."
So you're right, they had 114 plus additives to the 134 knot ref speed.
The stick shaker activated at 130 knots with the flaps at 10 degrees. Not a lot of room between ref and the shaker it would seem. I look forward to reading the NTSB's report.
