What is that Switch for?

If it is a small push type switch, the only one I have seen under a gas pedal is for the overdrive kickdown. I don't know if it could be for the kickdown on your automatic or not, usually they are controlled by the throttle linkage. I have seen some wired by people to shut off the ac compressor under full acceleration.
Might be able to trace the wiring from the switch and see where it goes.
Good luck

In my 1960 shop manual, there's either an overdrive switch or an accelerator stop in that spot.
"Conventional Drive Transmission: Adjust accelerator stop against pedal at wide open throttle after idle adjustment.
Overdrive Transmission: Pedal assembly should just make contact with overdrive switch at full throttle."
