I’ve been cycling regularly (once a week) for the past couple of weeks, the last 10k of this ride were the hardest i was literally riding at 12km/h from exhaustion but i pulled through. should i make the jump to 100k or get there gradually ? i own a hybrid (Sirrus 2.0)

I made the jump from 125 to 200 (although the 200 were probably a bit too much at the time). So it’s possible for sure, but also depends on your bike and the roads you take. I hade a roadbike on only paved streets.
If you say you already struggled the last 10km, I would probably do a few more rides around the same distance. If you then don’t feel completely drained afterwards, the jump is possible for sure.
