I'm thinking of temporarily fixing the gear to the shaft somehow, setting
it up in the mill, and drilling straight through with a 1/4" drill and
then just push through a 1/4" roll pin. I can't really figure out how to
fix the gear onto the shaft temporarily, though. Ideas?

One way to manage the Straight Through part is to rest the exit hole
on a center facing upwards under the spindle, with the drill stop set
just short of it.
