Default Possible tranny problem? A4

I was driving today and I was going about 50mph put the petal to the floor the transmission dropped down and started to accelerate. Until about 5500 rpm where it kind of stayed there. At that point I would let off.

When I manually shift through the gears I seem to have all of them and it seems to shift normally.

I'm down in McLean VA I'm worried that I wont make it back to Franklin square NY. There is a slight leak up by the cooler lines but not major at all. I will post a picture for you guys to see.

No, not since the surgery.

Ok so a little update, it does it not in gear too. It's almost like it is hitting the rev limiter.
