My car made a high-pitched whine when I tried to turn the key?

The car is a 2004 Mini Cooper S. When I was coming home, I stopped at intersection, going slightly uphill. When I tried to accelerate, I stalled the car. Turned the car off, tried to turn it back on, then heard a abnormally high-pitched whine... like the car was trying to start but had no hope of ever getting there.

Not sure if it had something to do with the clutch, but I was able to get the car going again and made it home safely. What happened? Did I damage the car in any way?
