Seem to be synonymous.
However, on closer examination it seems that "rush" has a nuance of haste and carelessness, whereas "hurry" seems only to carry the nuance of speed.
1.I rushed up the stairs.
2.I hurried up the stairs.
Speed Up: An increase in speed, especially in a person's or machine's rate of working.
