It does the same if you stop for a short time at the shops.
All of my cars both past and present have done this.
I guestimate it has something to do with auto choke quickly stopping and uneven temp throughout the engine.
Because when the engine is turned off , heat rises and heats up the fuel rails and inlet manifold.
This was a big problem with my old ford falcon , the rising heat would overheat the starter motor and the solution of fixing sheet metal under the started motor was "official" , but did not work.
It is very noticeable on hot 40+ degrees C days
