Like I said, I've been riding my upgraded bike for 1.5 months, 5 times per week in average, making 12*5 = 60 km per week. So it's like 60*6.5 = 390 km (242 miles).
Don't know about the slipping, but I have a Nexus 8 with 13000 kms and it always felt like grinding in 4th gear. No problems so far, Shimano says it's normal to hear noises in all gears in certain circumstances:
