I had a similar problem a while ago, and I fixed it by editing the 'TeX' language definition, changing the end delimeter of string.other.math.tex as follows:

The problem with that is that it makes code like $foo} valid, so makes it harder occasionally to detect problems with runaway braces (hm, or perhaps it makes it more easy). It just feels wrong though to make this change on that general level. I think we need a particular rule that handles the \newcolumntype command, and perhaps tabular environments in general, and I guess perhaps simply makes $ into a regular character in there.
