The gravitational influence of an average habitable planet makes the jump

calculations impossibly imprecise out to distances of about twelve planetary radii

It is not clear whether the time experienced by the passengers of a ship in


hyperdrive has any relation to the duration of the jump as observed by a typical
observer in the outside galaxy.
The Galactic Empire is over 120,000 light years in diameter but has only existed
under Palpatine's government for a mere quarter-century or so.
If news of the establishment of Palpatine's regime was carried outward from the
Core Systems in such a way that it only reached the Outer Rim Territories
by the time of his death then the starships bearing the news would have average
travel velocities of over 5000c.
owever we know that transgalactic travel is feasible within the early part of an
adult lifetime (Han Solo crossed the galaxy before he turned 29),
and furthermore the coherence of the Empire as a single political, economic and
cultural entity demands trans-galactic travel times of several weeks at the most.
According to this propagation timescale the equivalent realspace speed of
hyperdrive travel is typically greater than 1,200,000c.
This speed scale is supported in several novels references (eg. Dark Force Rising
p.212).
