I think that actually Rh8+ does not win but only
draws, just like Qc8+.

White can force a win of black's queen
for a rook, but the resulting position
is a tablebase draw.

The programs are pushing the actual exchange
over their 'tablebase horizon'. (i.e. the maximum
depth at wich they probe tablebases)
