What's the problem? Should North have bid 4N?
It looks to me like EW kept NS from finding their minor suit slam. If 6 (or even 7!) of either major is played by South, West must make an unlikely heart lead to set it.

Maybe I am missing something, but I think that West's 4S at this vul is poor.
You (West) have the hearts wrapped up, and you are offering to the opponents the choice between a certain 800 and a speculative slam that may or may not make and, perhaps more importantly, may or may not be bid if you pass.
