GLS550 stall

I drive a 2018 GLS550 with 20k+ miles on it. I was on a long straight by some backroads and decided to do a few pulls. After the 3rd one, I started to slow down and pull a U turn. Mid turn, it shuts off and comes to a hard stop and the screen doesn’t say anything, no warning messages thank god. Car took a few tries to turn over but it sounded/drove normal after that. Ever since then there hasn’t been any problems, anybody have any clue on what could’ve happened? Jus wondering because this hasn’t happened on any of my other benz.

Maybe the car needed a short rest after those pulls. Wouldn't worry about it unless it keeps happening.
