I've noticed this with all of my carbed engines and always wondered why.
Why is it that when you are running down the road and push in the clutch the engine idles faster until you come to a stop? I'm not talking emissions stuff or EFI engines. I mean ones without any computer or electrical connections other than the coil. I was driving the grain truck back from town yesterday. Came to the dirt road and pushed in the clutch. I purposely pushed in the clutch really early to give it lots of time at idle to see if it would go all of the way down. Idle stayed above 1200 rpm until I got to about 10 mph and then idled down to 800 or so. It is a 1958 with a cable choke. There's no connection to speed. My restored old cars do it to. I originally thought maybe the wind through the rad was pushing the fan, but my old cars are air cooled. No fan up front.
