Default My first CEL just came on lastnight car does weird thing...

So while driving to the movies my CEL came on...
I noticed that my Tachometer was off when i was going 60MPH and it was showing that car doing 1k RPM. When i pressed gas it went up to two and when i slammed on pedal it went to 3 and slowly to 4k RPM. It idles ok and no hesitation... So im really confused now.
I have a bad catalytic converter and im thinking that O2 sensor went bad but then im curious why would my tachometer would act up??? Anyone got any ideas???
