Engine reignition

The other day I turned off my ignition and then IMMEDIATELY turned it back to the ON position to roll down a window. When I did this, the fuel pump started pumping some gas and it was fast enough that I actually felt the engine catch and combust that gas before sputtering to a stop, after it already was nearly completely stopped it kind of revved up a little again. Anyone had this happen? I just thought it was weird, didn't know that could happen. Or, if it sounds like I'm nuts and that's not what happened, that's probably true.

Nice, I must have done it just a little too slow.
