I may be completely mistaken but it doesn't seem to me to be a missing cylinder. It's not as if just one cylinder is not firing but if the engine is shut off momentarily as if the fuel supply is cut off.
I may not have enough experience with diesels to be making this judgment but I know that when my 300d starts in the cold and it only hits on a few cylinders for a few seconds until it catches, it doesn't sound or feel like this 'hiccup'.
