I've heard this is often a tactic of theirs, especially if they're being recorded by a body cam or such. Just simply declaring loudly that they smell alcohol or suspect drugs sets it on the record so now it's your word against the cop's. If it ever ends up as evidence or in courts, it now appears as if there was probable cause for everything that follows and it's only your word to say the record straight (good luck!)
The other flavor of "Stop resisting!" when your arms are pinned and their knee is on your throat so their partner can keep kicking you in the ribs.
