The Go around altitude is 3240. So if the power was kept on, the AP had no other alternative than to pitch down very hard. Because of the nose down parameter being exceeded, the AP disconnected. The airspeed increased a lot.
So when the AP disconnects the pilot powers back to get the speed under control. What a set up trap!
