Free revving a four cylinder or 6 cyl to 6000 would not cause any damage normally. It maybe however, the automatic transmission oil-pump, which is driven from the engine not the roadwheels, may have burst a seal. This is an opinion only. What is more likely is that the vacuum modulator hose may have collapsed or popped off during the technician's AC work. Notify them something is wrong. They should repair any problems.

It's what you might expect if the kickdown wire is stretched, broken or too loose.

Just a thought but have you looked at your motor and trans mounts somthing may have shifted Good Luck

============================= Please excuse me for suggesting this, but I've had many experiences with mechanics not quite getting things right, - maybe after runing the engine up to redline searching for a fault, he "accidently" disconnected the solenoid wire at the transmission case. The transmission is shifted electronically, so if you're suddenly not getting the first two gears, I'd check the electrical connections first.
