Yes, it is entirely possible that that is the case. Just still frustrating as to why the update is no longer available to those that originally received an update notification.
They has the power to see what ESN's are currently pulling the update, and they can easily terminate all connections to the server. Sucks, but they can do it.
Just be patient.
It is possible that the update was released by mistake. First major update I've seen without a prior soak test.
Also possible that their servers are being overloaded since word is now out and everyone is impatiently checking for updates. Also, motorola has a habit of releasing updates in bursts... some will get it while others will not.
Same thing happened with ICS. Everyone was impatient and complaining that it would never come out... when it dis, everyone was rushing to get it and a day later, everyone was complaining. Give it a rest and enjoy the holidays. Your phone will survive a few more days without it.

Weird thing is that I successfully downloaded and installed the update on my wife's Razr after I noticed that it wasn't downloading on mine.
I'm currently questioning Motorola reps about that now. They are saying that there in no available update (sticking to that HARD) and avoiding any questions directed to them about other RAZR users already having it.
lolz then this was clearly a mistake on their end, wow. this is kinda comical lol
Rob: Claire, I know that's what is being "said". If that is the case, why do so many RAZR users now have the Jelly Bean update?
Rob: As I said, I've seen the chart.
Rob: And if my device was up to date. Why did I receive a notification and ATTEMPTED download of new OTA software?
Claire: The Jelly Bean update is already available for Droid Razr HD and Droid Razr Maxx HD.
Claire: There would be a possibility that it is one of the updates for your downloaded applications.
Rob: I know this. These are RAZR (not Maxx or HD) users reporting thise.
Rob: I don't think so. This was a software update with the same build number as the Jelly Bean OS
Claire: I apologize but we cannot push the update because it is not yet available.
Rob: Oh, Claire. Are you covering up for a Motorola mistake?
Then you'll love that. Ha
