In 4th gear? That's a bit over the speed limit.

These engines can actually rev alot higher then the limiter. BMW sets the limiter and etc for a long lasting engine, that will be reliable etc. therefor at the limiter, the engine is not over stressed.

As long as the car was warmed up - I wouldn't worry.
