Is that an electric prop?  Why are the amps maxed out?

Subject: [LML] Re: Prop overspeed???

Today's 2hr flight was normal in all respects with the single exception that
immediately after liftoff, the MVP-50 began screaming 'check RPM'. The RPM
display was close to 4000 and fuel flow spiked.
Nevertheless engine sounds remained normal. Sure got my attention.
At 6:29:28 and just as the gear started to come up is when the RPM
indication spiked for all of about
5 seconds. Haven't seen this before.

What would the common, everyday prop overspeed sound like?? not that I ever
want to hear it....
