If you're not hearing any strange noises and not seeing any fluid leaks then you may have not caused any damage. The only way to know is to drive it. If it drives ok then you may have gotten away without a problem. From your description you didn't let the clutch fully engage in 2nd gear. So maybe the RPM didn't spike as high as you think.

Or, you engine is about to blow up in a blaze of glory any minute ... just kidding!

Rev limiter would cut fuel but not stop a mechanical overrev by the wheels driving the motor through the transmission.. These engines can take a bit of over rev I have mine set to redline at 7350 or so now so if you have no od noises or rattles you should be fine..
