I believe this is much more plausible given the facts around what you stated happened, coupled with how quickly it all happened, your brain likely discarded any awareness of the engine or tachometer by turning on survival mode to the forefront of your mishap.

Simply said, the facts you've given us point to an accidental 2nd gear downshift instead of the expected 4th gear.
My cars been tuned my red line moved to 7500 rpms so even if I did downshift to 2nd accidentally my car should of accelerated really hard not locked the rear end up.
