Not sure why it did it.

Something might be wrong with the sensor.

Try driving it a couple of times at lower speed and switch to autostick and see what happens.

You know what i dont like about the volvo autostick. they should change the gear up and down the opposite way. Gear up forward and gear down backwards. That will make more sense to me.
