Notice that he says "Wait, something is
different." This is the same
line he uses in the first movie when
they are in the building and were
betrayed by Mr. Reagan to Agent Smith,
when Neo notices the cat going
by twice... He notices that reality has
been looped after the
Nebuchadnezzar has been bombed and they
are fleeing the Sentinels.

Rather than coming from Neo, Couldn't
the EMP that destroyed these sentinels
have come from Naobi's ship that showed
up to rescue them immediately after the
destructive EMP like event occurred?
