Monitors Overshooting beyond white

I've come to notice that monitors can overshoot beyond a 255 rgb value on extreme overdrive settings, and this effect is surprisingly noticeable in the UFO white track, I'm now left wondering how exactly can a monitor overshoot beyond white.
And the even more confusing part is how this behavior can be seen on TN panels, where the liquid crystal layer should be "turned off" to let light pass through and display white, so it doesn't really add up.
Is there any explanation to this?
