rev then die?

so i was driving the other day and tossed it in neutral and reved up a bit then all of a sudden i heard the tires squeal and the car just shut off. i pulled over and put it in park and tried to start it again but it didnt do anything then i let it sit about 2 mins and tried again and it started right up but the batery was very low so i took it home and charged it. any ideas on what caused this would be greatly apreciated.
