Default hot EGTs for short times??

hey guys, just wondering how bad it is on the truck if you get it hot for 4-8 seconds at a time randomly. i was toying around with a custom turbo rabbit diesel tonight and i accidentally let my EGT's get to at least 1600 deg for no longer than 5 or 6 seconds. Just hoping didnt do any damage and made sure to let truck run and cool down really good after that happened. what do you guys think coulda happened, if anything.
