Unhappy Help..... Van Revving

I have a 2005 Dodge Caravan and this morning on my way to work I noticed after being stopped at a light that when I took my foot of the brake it want to lunge forward. There was nothing else weird going on other then this so I continued on my way. Once I arrived to work I parked and put the van in park once i did this my RPM jumped up to 3000. I shut off the van and waited a couple of minutes thinking maybe it was just a weird hiccup (I have had other weird things before that happen once and never again) so I turned it back on and the RPM jumped up right away and I was almost to 4000 and panicked and shut it off. Any ideas????

Welcome to DF
You could have a vaccum leak as duane had stated, or the throttle is staying in a wide open throttle position.
