My 2011 6.2l has done that maybe three or four times since I’ve owned it (original owner), all while driving slowly through a parking lot on a dry summer day. Last time it happened was maybe three years ago. Never got it checked out. Never had any issues. I wouldn’t worry about it.

Thats kinda what I’m thinking too, just let it ride untill it becomes a regular thing. I checked under the truck for any loose sensor connections but found nothing...

If it happens again, turn the traction control off using the button on the dash just to see if it happens while off (just to rule it out)

i turn mine off regularly in the winter because it’s annoying in the snow.

well after taking the battery off all day it hasn’t happened yet but when/if it does it again I’ll try switching it off and see. Its a difficult one to figure out that is for sure.
