The NFL has a special outside task force that looks at every call that has an effect on the point spread or over/under of a game. An example would be an official making a late pass interference call in a game that sets up a meaningless TD as far as who wins, but allows a team to cover the spread.
The task force would look at that call and into the official to see if there is anything suspicious.
I also know that MLB tracks the over/under on their games and the umpire strike zones for any anomalies.
I don't think the NBA or NHL do any of that.
