continuous revving in neutral. bad for engine?

After I installed header and catback today, I asked my wife to rev the engine in neutral while I went under the car to check for exhaust leaks. when I went under the car I noticed she wasn't revving it like blipping the throttle, but rather continuously keeping her foot on the gas and keeping the revs about 3000 rpm. This went on for about a minute and the car was idling for 5 min before that.

Would this do any permanent damage to engine or any component in our cars?
