It is very likely that what you heard of or felt is the converter clutch locking up. Depending on the converter stall it will be more apparent. In a low stall setup it can and will feel like another gear has engaged. In a high stall converter setup it may not be noticeable.
We set our converter clutch lock up circuits to apply firmly, we don't like seeing converter clutches slipping and wiping out our units.
Hope that helps!

sounds like to me someone removed the ball and capsule from the input shaft and removed the tcc modulated apply which will make the lockup feel like a 5th gear
