What conditions cause the RPM needle to fluctuate?

My wife said that it was moving all over. The 1991 740 wgn jerked, hesitated, missed... I don't know how to describe it... just twice when I drove it home. The RPM needle seemed okay. I didn't hear a backfire or anything like like. For an instant I thought maybe it was the transmission failing. Engine starts okay. Idles okay. Jerked twice when I first started to acceleerate into traffic onto the hwy . then everything seemed okay again. Then it hiccuped twice again after 10 miles of smooth driving. That's too "intermittent" for me to get a grip on. Spark plugs look okay but I changed them anyway. I need some troubleshooting advice. Thanks.
