This thing happens because MS highlighting has only 15 highlighting color and
when you save Writer text background \ highlighting to an MS format it is
converted to this color palette.
It's the default behavior, but you can change this at Tools -> Option ->
Load/Save -> Microsoft Office, to save Writer text background as MS Shading and
so colors won't change. Nut in this case when you open that *.doc file in MS
Word you could not change the text background with highlighting tool, but with
the shading tool:

Before the 5.0 version sometimes we saved Writer text background as shading
(doc, docx), sometimes as highlighting (rtf). From that version an option is
added, so the user can select the preferred behavior. Highlighting became the
default, because on LO UI text background is called highlighting. This option
can be set also via user profile.

So, probably not a bug..
