That's one of Microsoft's efforts to make Windows "easier" for
beginners. Just move your mouse over one of the three buttons in the
upper right corner and wait till the tool tip appears.

I think it is partly TB!'s fault and partly the fault of the OS. I
suppose you activated cleaning and compressing on exit? That will cause
quite some activity when closing.

When you move your mouse over that "exit" button, the OS starts waiting
to display that tool tip. Now TB! closes and eats up CPU power. So the
OS can't react to mouse input for some time.

So when TB! has finished its shutdown process, Windows can handle all
the things that happened while it was busy. And one of this unhandled
tasks is to display that "Close" tool tip.

You could use TweakUI to disable those tool tips completely. That's what
I did. In TweakUI, have a look at the "General" tab, and disable "Mouse
hot tracking effects"
