I believe it means the car is slowing you down either via brakes on the wheels due to wheel slip or it's pulling throttle/timing out of the engine to protect it.
With regards to your earlier post, did you ever actually put new coil packs in or just swap them around?
Checking the harness is a good thing to do if new coil packs don't alleviate the problem, but once a coilpack is faulty it's faulty, it doesn't magically get better from what I can tell.
Put two new ones in a month ago and it feels like the car is much happier than before, could just be placebo but I'm optimistic that the latest part numbers exist to help prevent this from happening.
