Plenty of WW2 aircrafts attained that speed, albeit none of which were US naval bombers.

350knots is around 650kmh. F6F is 624kmh. F4U, Mustang, late spitfire etc. all reached over 700kmh. As for bobmers, the Me410 reached 624kmh. The Mosquito had 670kmh. The Arado 234 had up to 740kmh top speed, only the fastest of fighters could catch it.
