I assume you're referring to seeing this during an aggressive launch (WOT). The shift points are selected for optimum acceleration and repeatability. That said, the tachometer has a slight lag to the tach (most evident in first gear because the GC accelerates so damn fast) so the reality is you're a bit above 5k during the first shift. You can play with autostick but my money is on the computer beating you every time.
