The "Mach 10 anti-ship missile" I have heard of before; it's not actually mach 10 I don't know where they got that for this. It's a ballistic missile that can (reportedly) carry a nuclear payload and (this is the important bit) be guided to a target. The idea then is that satellites observe a CBG and guide the nuke in. It's like early ICBM's in terms of range, but add in modern sensing technology.
You are thinking of Hypersonic Missile which the US is working on. It is supposed to have a top cruising speed of 3600mph which is around Mach 5. Some of those guidance system is probably being worked on locally here in Centennial, CO
