I'd give them the benefit of the doubt that they're confusing the fact that you can hammer the engine all the way to redline after service, which indeed produces more power than limiting revs. But obviously it's not the service itself that's unlocking any magic capabilities. (Nor should the output on the "gauges" be any different... but since that's just software, maybe there is some Easter egg in there, who knows?)
