If it's a good meter - the movement is far removed from the circuit, but the cap
is most likely insurance so no sharp spike makes it to the movement....
A spike that may occur if one lead is accidentally lifted while the tv is on....
It's unlikely the movement's inductance comes into play as it is bypassed by a
resistor of small value, 1 -2 Ohms, and then further hidden in a series resistor network....

But I can see that the possibility of the high frequency and unknown internal
components to the meter could cause resonance and effect the accuracy of the
reading.... So Yes I can agree on the resonance possibility....
