I think it really is because you're in a bad mood.
There doesn't seem to be anything backhanded or condescending about this gesture. Hasn't the IE team been doing this since before FF beat them in market share?
This is more like the owner of Chevrolet sending a cake to the president of Toyota.
As much as I'd like it to be true, Firefox hasn't yet beaten IE in global market share. They are number one now in Europe (by some stats) and hold pole position in a bunch of countries but IE will need another 6-18 months to lose their #1 position at current rates.
