The bomb has a vane which rotates in the air. When it rotates a certain number of times, the bomb will be armed. If it is released at a higher speed, it will 'unwind' faster. From the same altitude, the bomb does of course take the same amount of time to hit the ground but it is also following a longer trajectory through the air so there will be more turns of the vane in the same time.
