Maybe I'm reading this wrong, but it looks to me as if the game ended tied and then the technical foul was issued after the fourth quarter had ended.
If that is what happened, then the referees were correct.
Case book 5.6 Comment B:
If a technical foul occurs after the ball has become dead to end a quarter, the next quarter is started by administering the free throws. This applies even when the foul occurs after the first half has ended. It also applies when the foul occurs after the second half has ended, provided the score is tied.
