Default Upshifted and RPM's rose!??!?!?!?

Driving down the street the other day in 4th gear abotu 1900 rpms following a slow *** car (S1 tranny btw). Anyways, chance came up for me to pass it so i shifted to 3rd (without releasing clutch yet), double blipped and then shifted to 2nd. My RPMS for some odd reason only hit up to about 3000rpm ?!?!?!? Acceleration was super slow too and I was like WTF. So anyways, passed the car and then shifted to 3rd, all of a sudden RPM's hit up to about 4500.

I dunno what happened there but it has never happened b4. I'm guessing it's somethign to do with my clutch or flywheel. I really hope I didn't just take a yr or two off my clutch.....

Can anyone explained to me what happened to my car?
