When you hit your breaks going down hill, that is a signal you are trying to slow down and / or maintain speed. As a result the transmission will downshift. When it does, engine RPM's go up. The ECM (the onboard computer) should prevent it from over-revving and hitting a redline condition on the tachometer.
