You actually should be able to check this out with Halscope. Look at the velocity or step rate for the Z axis, and trigger on spindle.0.index-enable or whatever it is called on your LinuxCNC version. If what I said was right, velocity should go higher than the required Z feedrate for a moment right after the spindle encoder gets the index pulse, and then settle down to the required feedrate for that thread pitch.

Love that rigid tapping! I just did 160 holes, with a spot drilling step, then a drill through step, and finally tapping some 6-32 and 2-56 holes. It is kind of scary watching a 6-32 tap plunge in at
1000 RPM and 32 IPM feedrate.  Taps the hole in barely a second!
