In the following position with about 3 minutes left on it's clock, Houdini played 65. ... Qxd5??, I can only imagine that this is a bug.
As we already have 6men on the board it seems to depend on your tablebase setup.
(speculating about incomplete ones...or interfering Nalimov/Syzygy?)
I was wondering about that myself. I have the complete set of SYZYGY, so I was wondering if Nalimov was was the problem. Checking my Shredder GUI I found that GUI boxes were checked to use tablebases (Nalimov and Shredderbase), so I unchecked them and restarted the match. Hopefully it is/ was just a GUI configuration issue.

I have only 5men here, because full 3-6men WDL+DTZ are >150GB and I need already a lot of space for other things.
You could try if you can reproduce it with various settings.

When you can/will find the room, that 150Gb is well worth it, Gunther. With a "high" endgame hash setting the speeed is _noticiable_ when I analyse endgames, or near-endgames.
