Here's a useful tip on how to never overshoot and easily safe disengage on target : a little before the ETA shows 0:06, put your throttle to 75% (I think the default shortcut for this is '8'). For instance, putting it at 75% at 0:10 is fair enough.

Once it's done, the ETA will always decrease until it reaches 0:06 and then stay at 0:06 and your speed will automatically decrease until you reach 1Mm and are able to safe disengage. I even often manage to press the 75% throttle shortcut at 0:07 and it'd still stop and stay at 0:06.

You can also do this at 70% (pressing 3 times the -10% increment shortcut) but then the ETA will only reach 0:07 and then slowly start counting backwards. Which still works, but you'd lose a couple seconds I think.

80% however is always a complete overshoot.
