Default Display Questions!!

I took my car on a little road trip this past weekend. From Dallas to Houston. On Hgwy 45 the speed limit is 70 MPH for the most part, and everyone was hauling *** at 80-85 MPH the whole way. During the trip I drove about that fast consistanly. After being on the road for about 2 hours or so, at those speeds, I got some strange things coming up on my Display.
Instead of displaying how many more miles I could Travel with my gas, It displayed " 2:00 h "
It was Flashing in Yellow and stayed that way for the remaining hour of the trip and then on the display where it would normally tell you the temp outside....I kept having "MPG" with a circle around it come up in yellow along with a soft alarm sound...Then I realized it did that only when I would go over 85 MPH.... Anyone know what all that means?

When you start/drive your Audi, the display shows when you have driven 2 hrs, hence "2:00h ", this is to remind the driver to take a break, rest. When I see that I push the switch to toogle to a different display and it goes away.
Audis can also have an alarm set to go off when you exceed a given speed, how to set this check in the owners manual, I have never set mine.
