Yes, if the steering wheel was bound tight against the locking mechanism, the lock can be difficult to turn. Possibly one of the front wheels was pushed against a curb or something stressing the steering. But usually the wheel can be muscled off the lock to relieve the strain, if you thought to try that.

That's been a Dodge problem for many, many years. It is aggravated by running the AC blower on high, or the blower motor is failing and drawing too many amps. If that is the cause, it will be back, strange things will happen, accessories will stop working, AC will stop, etc.
