eeeh, i don’t think this is a particularly noticable benefit.
The amount of noise given off by cars at those speeds is just an annoyance, the real problem is the tyre noise at high speeds and that’s only made worse by electric cars.
They recently lowered the speed on a through-road near me from 70km/h to 60km/h and it made a pretty huge difference in how tolerable it is to be anywhere near the road, the difference between a combustion and an electric car driving on a residential street is so much smaller that it’s not even funny.
