Hmmm... I didn't drive my M today, so I can't go out and check, but are you sure you're talking about the RPMs and not MPH?
Most newer BMWs (our cars included I think) have the speed warning chime.
This can be set to any speed, and will make an audible chime when you pass that speed. So lets say the speed limit around you is 70mph; you can set it for 78 or so, and that way if you're cruising along and get a bit too throttle happy it'll serve as a gentle reminder to check your speedo.
The M cars also have the variable redline.
Start your car for the first time that day, and you'll notice that revving to 5k or so would put you in the yellow. As everything gets to operating temperatures, the final redline of 8k is shown.
