Googling gifv reveals it is a video format, not just an image format. And I'm honestly a bit surprised that the FFF image processing handles it without choking.

Downloading that story, several other gifv files from media.tumblr.com download fine, just not the last one, which fails with server error 500.

There's no apparent difference, and trying again several minutes later without downloading the previous chapter images again succeeds.

So I conclude there's a limit being imposed by media.tumblr.com. You could try setting a higher slow_down_sleep_time, but there's no guarantee.

I'd try deleting that chapter and updating after some time has past.
