Reading the technical specifications of WD40 it says that it has a quite high kinematic viscosity (i.e. very little viscous fluid) of 2.8 cST @38C. However reading through its revealed trade secret compound composition I've discovered that there are a lot of different material on the mix that could contribute potentially towards rather a non-Newtonian fluid characteristics therefore making this kinematic high value given of viscosity apparent.
Also here is an interesting article that shows how an alkane hydrocarbon when combined with water can exhibit non-Newtonian fluid dynamics: Article
