From what I'm able to figure, I checked distance between Klamath - Redding (105 miles) .
There is 8 squares between the two,  giving each square (from corner to corner), a distance of 13.1 miles.  By no means should you take this as absolute, is rough idea. I'm pretty sure the locations in game are not aligned exactly where they are on a real map.

Well i've heard that the new travel speed is 3 or 4 km/hr.  So I'm not sure how that translates, but that may help.

I used SF map, and judging by this, I'd say it's about 22 km per tile. You can't get an exact scale to it, but judging on the appearances, I matched up the tile borders, seems pretty close.

seem to me then that it is roughly 12.5 miles or 20 kilometers  (13.1 miles , 22 kilometer)
