I've read about the diff making noise and stuff but is that what I'm hearing? I don't seem to get the noise any other time

OP, are you driving a 7AT or 6MT?
With the 7AT in park there's some slack that will let out once you release the foot brake and the Park gear lock takes over.
In the 6MT, chances are the little bit of movement is the parking brake taking a "set" when you let off the brake. A little bit of movement is normal but make sure you pull the brake lever up fully and leave the car in gear while parked (first gear if car is pointing up hill and reverse if pointing downhill).
