i don't know about other cars but with volvo equipped with ABS , on max brake pressure in emergency braking , the pedal holds your highest pressure until you let off the pedal as your leg cannot sustain max braking force for more than a few seconds , like a ratchet mechanism .This is built into the direct acting servo behind the pedal .
