Well I'm not sure you are going to agree with me but I think this theory of mine makes sense.I think the reason Neo could stop the sentinels is because a small part of Neo is a code he got when he jumped into Smith's body in the first movie, just like Smith said :"I don't fully understand how it happened. Perhaps some part of you imprinted onto me, something overwritten or copied"...And I think that the machines/agents are programed to avoid destroying/killing other machines/agents by stopping or/and destroying themselves, so when the machines felt Neo's code they thought he was a machine/agent so they did the "self destruction" to avoid hurting him.
Well that's what I think , I want your opinions.
i think it's because his mind is still plugged into the matrix, though, like the oracle said.
but nice thinking. a fresh perspective. i guess we'll see.

Perhaps it's a little bit of both.....Maybe Neo DOES have machine code in him....I like this theory!......maybe the machines can sense that code BECAUSE he's still plugged in?? A possibility??...

Maybe when the machines self-destructed they did so by frying there circuits with electricity. Because the machines had gotten so close to Neo the elactricity shocked him into a subconscience state.

We know from EtM that Neo’s mind is trapped somewhere between the Matrix and the real world. The Oracle says as much. What is the “mind” in the Matrix? It’s the mental projection of the digital self aka the avatar.
Maybe Neo copied his avatar (if Smith can, so can Neo probably) either willingly or by accident.
If Neo’s avatar is stuck in the Source it’s sitting right in the big remote control for once. So you don’t need a Smith code copied to Neo. It also doesn’t really explain how Neo was able to stop the sentinels.
All we do need to do, is explain how Neo’s mind being stuck in the Source, makes his real body/mind capable of sensing the sentinels… AND stop them (and please, no EMP’s or the Hammer was nearby).

Watch the new Revolutions trailer and you will see a shot of Neo and Trinity in a Hovercraft [SPOILER - highlight to read]: with Neo wearing a blindfold. When the squiddie gets near the ship, Neo puts his hand up and fries the Sentinal
it doesn't make sense mr.....
Just from the simple fact that NO matrix piece of software is supposed to reach the sentinel area of influence. Even smith downloading into bane is an anomaly.. therefore...the sentinels wouldn't have anything to recognise a matrix software with.
