DH says 'I'm good for nothing except bitching about him'. AIBU to take offence

Just that really.

Background: I was speaking to my sister on the phone in the car. He dislikes having to listen to other people's phone conversations and was urging me to hurry up. I felt rude rushing my sister off the phone and explained that I had to go as DH dislikes me being on the phone in the car (not said in a mean way).

He got upset, said I was bitching about him and was 'good for nothing except bitching about him'. I was so hurt that I hardly spoke to him all day, which he considered a complete over-reaction. I feel it was a very hurtful thing to say and that most people would be upset. AIBU?

What sort of things provoke him?
Give us an example other than the one in your OP.

Pictish: a common example would be if he thought I was being too bossy regarding the baby, particularly what he should/should not eat.
