I somewhat agree, but it also shows how Walt is changing. He knows he'll be dead soon and his only legacy is that cash. It's also the only thing that allows him to tell everyone else to fuck off right now. With it threatened, it's not too unsurprising for him to crumble.
I agree that it didn't feel right in the moment, but, in retrospect, I don't think it was terribly out of line.
