I think many cars do that as the load on the engine is reduced during a rev limit event and the transmission may shift less than smoothly.

could be completely wrong. I don't really understand what he is trying to say
I like. OP hits the limiter and then shifts. Note to self: Do not buy used car from OP.

ETA: Damn, American Top Gear sucks.
