So I checked it out under a few different circumstances. These are all eyeballed and not scientific.
In "D" mode, pedal to the floor:
-drops by nearly 2000 from 6750 at redline to 4500 on each shift
In "DS" pedal to the floor:
-drops by a little less, maybe 1750 to just under 5000
In manual with paddles and traction nannies off:
-drops to 5000, but a little inconsistent depending on where I hit the paddle.
In summary, I think the drops you are describing are in the ballpark of normal. I don't think that it is normal behavior to stay at the same RPMs right after you shift, if this was the case, you'd be going right into the next gear, because that's how transmissions work.
