Definitely not. This term was used on different test charts, and it could be not commonly known for average pilot. So the measure was possible in well equipped on test centers. For example from Bf 109G-5 test chart:

"Geschwindigkeit in 0 m.
Die Geschwindigkeit am Boden wurde durch einem Stoppflug über der Stoppstrecke mit Kampfleistung...."

"Speed at 0 m level.
The speed at sea level was accomplished by timed flight (Stoppflug) over the test course (Stoppstrecke) at combat power..."

That's mean the test run was made on prepared route/track.
