Wrist heart rate monitor: Heart rate matches cadence?

I have a Garmin Forerunner which measures my heart rate on the wrist. On several runs, I've noticed a sharp increase in heart rate to the point where it matches my cadence? Is that what it's actually tracking?
I know chest strap monitors are more accurate, but I don't know what causes the sudden jump. Anyone else experience this? |

I'd watch some of these videos and decide.

| I wore my garmin 4s to my stress test to check the accuracy. It was very very close to the 11 tabs monitoring my actual heart rate. |
