You assume of course the underlying tech (DOCSIS3) can also cope with the speed, which if I'm right in thinking, it can't. I think it tops out at 1Gbps but that tech isn't adopted widely by VM yet (only in trial areas?).
FTTC is flat out fiber to the cab, then it splits into the VDSL signals to your phone line, so the bandwidth is only split at the cabinet, not at the fiber node like on VM which then runs on coax to the street cabs, which then splits again to the individual premises.
