It's generally pretty difficult to overspeed the engine on a vehicle with a modern computer-controlled automatic transmission. The computer will shift the transmission as necessary to avoid damaging engine speeds.
The Ford V10, in particular, can safely and happily run at high RPMs (at least high by truck engine standards) for long periods of time without damage, even though it sounds as though it's about to self destruct at any moment.
