The split E is a mechanism linking the right hand E key to the lower G key. When you press the right hand E key, the mechanism closes the lower G Key as well.
Therefore when you play the high E in the 3rd octave, the mechanism automatically closing the Lower G key. That results in a clear and stable high E.
