The sale was reportedly rolled back to 4 Million. This was noted on-air by Craig Jackson towards the end of the SpeedTV broadcast, 23h30 GMT -5, Eastern.
Currently the Barrett-Jackson website lists the sale at 4.32M which when adjusted for 8% commission reflects a 4M hammer price. See http://www.barrett-jackson.com/auctionresults/common/bj06results.asp lot 1307.
There will surely be more information available when the SpeedTV Sunday coverage starts in the next few minutes.
It is probably a misunderstood bid or the person who bid 4.1M tried to wiggle his or her way out. Last night the buyer was reported, by Craig Jackson, that the new buyer was the same as the 1954 Pontiac Bonneville experimantal.
