sounds like it went into regen, but you should post this on the 6.4 forum, theyll be able to tell you more.

regen is something the 6.4 does to clean out the dpf filter I beleive the computer adds fuel, creating higher egt`s to burn particulate from the dpf. my buddy has one & describes similar stuff when his regens.
