A few years ago that anomaly got a lot discussion along with the one in which the code speed will suddenly pop up on the display.
IIRC, the most likely cause was that one of the DAC's that monitor the controls and reports any change was right near a switch point, so very minor variations on voltages or even just tiny changes in the response when it is polled for data will sometimes cause it to report an change in the value by one increment. Of course, the K2 is designed to display the change whenever something like the power or keyer speed is changed, so it pops up on the LCD for a moment.

I've always figgered it was due to my having brushed one of the knobs with my finger as I 'thumbed' the VFO knob around while tuning.
