I have only had this happen twice, both times it seems as if the transmission is trying to make a decision on which gear to select. Then it feels as if the torque converter goes into a higher rpm stall before engaging the proper gear.

Maybe they started using Toyota transmission shift algorithms as my Lexus has this to a degree.
