That last minute is the tail end of your spin and drain. The centrifugal force of spinning basically “wrings out” the water from your clothes while running the drain pump.
Modern washing machines (and dryers) are equipped with sensors to know how much water is in the machine. The models I service use an air pressure sensor, which senses pressure differences when water is added or drained from the tub. The timer is the process of the timed elements of the wash. Certain phases of the cycle end when a sensor tells it that the machine is clear for the next phase, which is not determined by the timer. If you pay attention during the whole cycle, the timer will skip around, mainly between phases of the cycle.
