fuel cut off

Ok so i was driving down the LIE yesterday and when i hit aproximatly 100 the truck cut off n stopped accelerating, is this like some kind of fuel cut out or what because i was only in 4th gear and could have pulled farther. if its an electrical thing is there a way around it?

Thanks for anyhelp you guys have
Nick
