Truck shuddering with foot off brake?

Hello everyone,

First off, I hope everyone is enjoying this awesome snow storm passing through. Now I wanted to ask if anyone has experienced what I did the other day because I'm concerned. I was sitting in my driveway in the truck, and I put it in drive to move it up the driveway, (its a slight incline) and when I took my foot off the brake, the truck was repeatedly jerking foward lightly, like the transmission was slipping. This also sometimes happens here and there when in traffic or inching foward, but overall it's usually smooth. Now, when I got the truck, I followed the break in period pretty good. Until at right about 100 miles, I was at a stop light and had to pass, so I gave her the beans. I clicked off the front sensors because those go crazy the first few hundred miles when breaking in, but I also accidentally hit Traction Control off, and the truck left a big mark. Now, I'm wondering if that had anything to do with it? It wasn't the full 300 miles, but 100 miles I feel was enough to where no big damage was done. Thoughts? Thanks.
