You probably turned the wheel when the car was off. Try turning the wheel left and right the little bit that it will turn, and turning the key.

As everybody else said, don't sweat it, its a normal security measure.

You wouldn't believe how often people come into the dealership saying "oh my god there's something wrong with my car! My steering wheel locked the other day!" lol

Here too. We're always locking wheels and the old people always freak out like the cars broke.
