What you are seeing is the end of the contour straightening out after it gets to the last datapoint in the SRTM data. There's a corresponding start of the same level contour in the next file over, and because the edge points are shared and overlapping by the SRTM tiles everything meets fine. So you get a kind of: \ \_ and _ \ \ meeting at the same point. It's not impossible to detect and edit the polyline, or even see if there's a gdal_contour option to fix it, but I haven't spent any time doing so.
