Youre low on oil maybe and hitting the brakes made the oil swish around in there and the oil exposed the sensor that says its low - so it may be pretty close to putting on the light and usually at that point its already too low.

the sensor that makes your light come on is not near the oil that is in the pan though its en route through the motor.

have you checked your oil level??
