To my knowledge an overspeed stall happens as the center of lift on the wing moves aft with speed, once it passes the wing the aircraft stalls as the tail is still flying. Airliners are not designed for this. This is approaching the trans-sonic range. Aircraft designed for this balance the wing and tail lift config to transition/ sonic flight.
