I always thought it was a bit like him shoving the sword through the Mayor. But, now that you mention it, it was very detached. I think that's just a very dark part of him. The same part that let him kill Ben and summon Eyghon(sp). I don't think we've ever been meant to know how dark his past is, but there's lots of little hints.
For instance, remember in season 5 when they catch one of Glory's minions and Willow and whoever else it was turns their back and there's this noise and suddenly the minion is spilling his guts? He had to do something to him, but we never see what it was.
And again when he threatens Ethan and beats him up and when he threatens Snyder to let Buffy back into school.
I always get the feeling there is something very scary about that man's past.
